- Current Employee, less than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
I am a full-time remote employee based out of Dublin. Started at GW during the pandemic but the onboarding process was smooth. The company culture atleast in the Dublin side seems to be great. Decent compensation, decent perks, and overall a good place to work. Very flexible work patterns.
Cons
Remote culture still needs a lot of work. There are few opportunities for team interaction if you're not office-based or not in the same time zone as your team. Insurance is a slow industry and this reflects in the growth opportunities and appetite for change within the company.
Thank you for taking the time to provide feedback. It’s important that we recognize what works and what doesn’t. Your experience is important to us, and we would love to have more details from you. Would you mind emailing us at careers@guidewire.com?
- Former Employee, more than 3 years★★★★★
Pros
Positive work environment, all staff including management both friendly and approachable. Good opportunities to move within the organisation.
Cons
Location is relatively far outside the city center (Dublin) with so-so public transport links. The company's tech stack will not leave you with many transferable skills - application is customized with Gosu and a custom front end editor. Can leave you somewhat pigeonholed as a result if this is your first job out of college.
- Current Employee, more than 1 year★★★★★
Pros
Good work/life balance Generous salary + benefits Cutting edge technologies/constant changes Ability to learn/career path Friendly team/team members Flexible working hours/flexible working
Cons
Too much bureaucracy Hard to climb up the hierarchical ladder Some managers are still believe in the offices and the office presence (however it's the 21th century and not the 19th) Too many promises/too easily promise anything Day to day staffs can be boring / too much time to do nothing / underused tech.professionals
