Pros

Shaw Academy is not like a "normal hours" job. They concentrate on the student learning at a time that suits them, so the starts and finishes can be a little later than normal. This might not suit everyone, but the variety makes it a break from the norm.

Cons

The hours can be long sometimes and the Dublin HQ can be a little tricky to get in and out of because of the traffic.

Pros

I'm glad I have colleagues here who were helpful and supportive.

Cons

I'd never forget my working experience here at Shaw Academy. It was the worst experience I had in my entire career. A whole day is definitely not enough for the amount of work that you need to accomplish. There's no work-life balance because all you'll be able to do in your life is to work. It was the most exhausting times of my life and looking back, I wished I quit earlier and didn't have to suffer longer.

Pros

Teaching what you love is probably the only good thing there.

Cons

Management. Sell or you are fired. Unrealistic working hours. Mass firing and people leaving the office like it was an exodus of people.
