      Pros

      Honestly difficult to find any pros.

      Cons

      Trinity College is the worst run organisation that I have been a part of, by far. The bureaucracy is unbelievable at times and it's difficult to get anything done. Too many arrogant people preventing other people from doing their work. The centralised command don't care at all about students, teaching, education or employees. They only care about making a profit and the public image. In fact, I would say that it survives as an instution off its public image and reputation alone. I would not recommend it to anyone.

      The worst HR Department I ever came across. What happens in there is shocking.

      Pros

      Location. Opportunity to apply for internal vacancies. Job security.

      Cons

      The hierarchical structure of this place is unbelievable. Incompetent and authoritarian senior managers that have no touch with reality. Communication between departments is dreadful. Human Resources is particularly bad for those working there as well as those who need to deal with it. Workload is not manageable and work-life balance doesnt exist in some departments. Grading system is often unfair with those in the mid/lower grades often working harder than everybody else (really useless and incompetent Senior Management). Promotion process is a joke. High turnover. laming and bullying culture and many people out sick due to stress and poor mental health - management doesnt care and doesnt address these issues.
