    The good thingsFixed shift pattern every week, 2-3-2. Alternate shift rotation every month, meaning this month you work day, the next month you work night. Since it's fixed, if you stay in the same team, your shift months will remain constant every year(this year, you work Night-shift in December, next year night shift also December) Internal progression has been observed. Colleagues/Teammates can be awesome or mundane as any workplace. A few activities or event created. A good place for entry level. A few interns retained/returned/resigned. 12-hours shift. 7-7. 2-3-2 pattern as follows, 2-days Work (Mon-Tue) 3-days OFF (Wed-Fri) 2-days Work (Sat-Sun) The following week, you just swap the Work to OFF days, vice versa. Hope this info helps.
    The challengesLocation is not that accessible and food-court quite a distance. Currently, a few new hires to support the minimum headcount, so OT might be affected in the future. If you think will get OT, just remember, you're additional headcount therefore it will be lesser or close to none. The Scope of work for COE is physical labor. Installation of 1 to 12 RU devices(could be 1 device or 20 devices. Depends of luck and customer expansion), monitoring of BMS and DCIM. Lots of fast-paced walking(Running) and reporting. Therefore, don't expect to join and perform coding or programming. The only configuring you'll be doing is just IP addresses. NO AWS. Only VB/PB in March. Salary contract offered in Annual not Monthly terms. But you'll still get Monthly salary(for those confused). Other DC offer higher remuneration package/basic.

    Good Colleagues, Nice Office, Good Benefits
    The good thingsColleagues are nice. Environment Nice.
    The challengesThere are lots of documents from China & Japan. Need to translate them in order to do a proper filing. Booking flights for managers is a challenges; request come to me & they need to flight the next week. Fare will be super high & out of their budget. Plus the timing they preferred usually not available. Can't get to book the Hotel they preferred due to last minutes request.

    The good thingsThe supervisor and my colleagues were very friendly. The work they gave to me not really much. The comfortable environment gave me a very good impression.
    The challengesAlthough I was familiar with my department, I did not know about other department during the half year. I suggest company hold a party regularly for several departments, it is good for them to know about each other.

Between departments, there's always opportunities to work hand in hand. Great cooperation when there's project and solve issues together with brain storming. You won't be felt lonely.

    Feedback for about my client place
    The good thingsAbsolutely, gave lot of opportunity to learn new things with peaceful environment. Its always fun when interacting within team members. International exposure like interacting with US people, when developing the products. And finally right place to learn about Data Center domain with the short period. Because Equinix is the trend setter in data center domain like US, Europe, Asia :)
    The challengesPerfection in each and every activities, especially on corporate guidelines and user experience implementation to give better experience for end users. Need to adapt always with new technologies, here people will migrate the technologies from old to new to keep their service in top. Playing multi-role is good to sustain here for long term. So that we can also grow like Equinix :)
