Pros

The Dublin office building is decent. Many good colleagues working there. Very diverse organisation. Good promotion opportunities for women.

Cons

- Huge bureaucracy and overheads. Too much time filling out useless paperwork that nobody needs or will ever read. - Hard to get basic things done with all the hoops to jump through. - The Dublin office gets forgotten about. Lower salary increases and bonuses compared to other locations. Over the years whenever there are layoffs, Dublin usually gets hit worse, while the leadership spare their buddies in their own location. - Tone deaf senior managers. On townhalls recounting their globetrotting trips to various sites, meanwhile the average worker there would never get as much a lunch from the company. - Some in senior management can be unpleasant. Belittling people in front of their peers. Pointing fingers and playing the blame game. Performative outrage on steerco calls. A negative culture overall.

Pros

Great benefits. Everyone is friendly and helpful. They do more than just pay lip service to work life balance

Cons

Like any job, the manager is the one that can make or break the position

Pros

Great benefits (PTO, healthcare, etc.) for FTEs

Cons

Everything else - Carousel of management changes - Vague and ever-changing role/job descriptions and associated metrics - The constant feeling that we're all about to be laid off but must "prove" our value in the meantime
