Pros

I was a field technician there for 18 years. Loved the tech I worked with and together we helped each other out, we had unwritten rules we all followed as techs. Operations manager took care of us and alway said to make sure you pay yourself. I had a lot of personnel issues and he backed me up on all of them when I could have just got let go.

Cons

Promised training every year and it never came. Project managers would stab you in the back if they had a chance (except for one who was a great guy, KP).

Pros

The data center work itself was interesting and there were opportunities to gain exposure to large-scale projects. Some coworkers on-site were supportive and hardworking.

Cons

Leadership and communication were extremely inconsistent. There was little structure, minimal training, and employees often felt like they were expected to figure things out on their own without proper support or mentorship. Workloads and expectations changed constantly depending on who you spoke to. The company talks about growth, but many employees are underutilized or not actually developed professionally. It often felt more reactive than organized, especially from upper management. Decisions were made with very little transparency, and morale suffered because of it. There was also a noticeable disconnect between corporate leadership and the realities of what was happening on-site. Many employees felt expendable rather than valued.
