Pros

great benefits (tuition, conference, community volunteering days), good bonus structure, very friendly people including management, good work life balance, good location, is somewhere you can settle in and climb the career ladder if that is your goal

Cons

inexperience management and title inflation, managers don't attend management training (not even newly promoted managers with no prior management experience), no real mentorship program in place to mentor people into their next role, general lack of people taking responsibility or being proactive when problems are found, lots of talk no action, agile methodologies not followed (individual products do not have product owners and so there is no product owner assigned to each dev team as you would expect), very frustrating place to work if producing a high quality product or following proper process is important to you.

Pros

Lovely environment, only seems to hire, nice friendly approachable people Felxible working hours/ WFH options Very ethical company (lots of volunteering opportunities) Fun office with lots of games

Cons

Office is not very accessible by bus, only really accessible by luas or driving To get ahead, you are expected to be seen doing a lot of extra things not necessarily related to your job, like volunteering to help on committees in the office.
