Pros

QTS is a good company with heart, quality products, and caring folks. Just like a lot of places, sometimes the politics of 'getting ahead' or 'protecting my turf' get in the way of progress and growth. That's unfortunate but people are people I guess. The good thing is the culture tends to win out and the company does make the right decisions for the right reasons the vast majority of the time. That's really important! The company has seen explosive growth so if you are a go-getter you have a great chance to be successful and grow with the company. If you need rigid structure and process to perform your job, you'll quickly see the holes that you have to fill in yourself to be successful. That can lead to frustration, confusion, re-work, and sometimes turn-over. It has the feel of a family start-up with sound financial backing. I think that's what makes it fun and exciting - others may disagree. Technology is moving so fast these days I don't know if QTS will ever catchup to being an automated-process heavy enterprise. Perhaps it's better that way, anyway?

Cons

Sometimes the wrong people are hired or the wrong decisions are made that aren't a good culture fit. These setbacks hurt growth and morale.

This is great feedback and insight! It sounds like you've already embraced the 'chaos' that can sometimes accompany such rapid growth and are thriving! I couldn't agree more that there are so many opportunities for people who are driven and willing to push themselves to learn more, and challenge their teams to try new things. We are lucky to have you. Keep up the great work and please be sure you're sharing your feedback with your leaders. We are only as good as our people. Shelagh Montgomery, EVP Strategic Client Management

The company has continued to find new ways to increase retention. Have a great team and feel supported by management. Just added a new equity program along with already existing stock purchase program.

Cons

Limited amount of work from home days allocated per employee. No car bonus or reimbursement for tolls on commute to work.

We appreciate the review! It's encouraging to hear you're excited about our new equity program, "Together We Grow." When QTS is successful, everyone is successful! QTS recognizes that work flexibility is important and employees are encouraged to utilize all 52 work-from-home days every year. This does not include days when the unexpected occurs, like picking up a sick child from school, running home to take care of an immediate need, falling ill, etc. Thank you for your feedback and contributions to QTS!

Pros

Servant Leadership - Folks will lean in to help you resolve issues. Fluid workflow - There are opportunities to work with other workgroups when you have spare capacity to grow your knowledge/experience into other areas. Rampant Growth - Industry as a whole is expanding very fast. Giving new opportunities for movement Environmental stewards - Leader in sustainable data centers with closed loop cooling. Community driven - Constantly have volunteer opportunities available and actively looking for more Teamwork - From at work, to at home; Your coworkers, managers, and executives actually care about you. They want to know who you are and are genuine in their interactions. CEO's will actively strive to learn your name... so it still has the small company vibe, but it is getting bigger fast.

Cons

Growing pains - Rapid growth and expansion have left some policies in need of polishing/creating. With the rapid growth there is upward mobility that leaves production vacuums behind. Good/Bad - the expansion doesn't appear to be slowing down anytime soon.
