Pros

Unless you are desperate for a paycheck pass on this one

Cons

Very poor work environment. Nobody is happy, managers are micro-managing and care more about the exact hours you put in opposed to the work you get done. No flexibility for an employee with kids (sick kids/daycare pickup). It's a tense place to be and management doesn't care about your future or helping you succeed.

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.
