Pros

Location, Luas, bus stops, Lidl and Centra nearby.

Cons

Senior management operates at an amateur level, contributing to a blame-oriented culture that is ultimately unsustainable. Stress-related leave is frequent. Additionally, the passing of two long-serving staff members was not acknowledged in any way, which came across as deeply disrespectful.

Pros

Close to the luas, near the city centre

Cons

I found the experience horrible. Very poor middle management staff as well as upper management, could say middle management was worse as you had to see them every day and deal with them snapping at you. A very toxic work culture. Zero benefits to working there. No pension, no health insurance, etc. Since I have left, I have developed professionally much faster and experienced normal companies that are modern and respect their employees. It has been the best career decision I made to leave. It's like going back in time, it's not modern at all for a Design studio. Members of design management did not know how to use Photoshop. One time I travelled abroad for work & got back home at midnight. I was expected in at normal time the next day... there is no HR and the company use the accountant to deal with all HR issues, which of course is not best practice. Managers, middle and upper will shout at their employees, they are under a lot of pressure and probably do not want to be working there either. When I was working there, many of the workers were looking for a new job, and I understand that this sentiment has not changed many years later... There are much better workplaces out there, so keep looking and best of luck!!
