Pros

-As a rule of thumb, if you are looking for " very relaxed 9-5 ;) " work or you are graduate, go for it. If you are not in early stage of you career, want to work and serious about you career as a software engineer you should avoid this place. -Generally nice colleagues and easy going management in Dublin

Cons

- Way below market salary and even they do their best to lowball you - All decisions (even simple technical) are made in Atlanta. - Lots of empty cooperate talk. - Too much politics. Constant game of thrones in Atlanta - They claim to be Agile but it is not used to improve process. Lots of action item after retrospective meeting but no result (similar to their projects/products). Looks like Agile for them is a way to silently micro-manage employee. - very limited career growth

Pros

They sponsor visas. Good space and free coffee in the canteen. Kind and friendly coworkers in general. Ok work-life balance. Benefits are average compared to the market.

Cons

Salaries much below the market. Lack of challenge in the job. Too much time spent on bureaucracy and infrastructure problems. No career progression and working from home is discouraged. People are leaving in hordes with no replacement. High management says Dublin is part of a strategic plan but facts show otherwise, there's little investment and projects have been removed from the office. No infrastructure ownership (it's all in US) and there are changes in configurations and permissions all the time without notice, affecting international teams and blocking the development. Management is unrealistic, even though they know about these problems they expect teams to deliver as if nothing was happening. Huge storms over insignificant issues, which keeps teams locked in low value and boring tasks. Lack of transparency. People hired for one project realize on the 1st day that they're going to another totally unrelated project using different technologies, with no explanations given. Candidates are told that the company is fully Agile and has only greenfield projects, which is not true.
