Pros

Nice perks, paid shut down, some folks are great to work with

Cons

This company has become filled with a bunch of bad Apple unfortunately. I loved this Company, but frankly, middle management is getting too big, decision making process is getting too bureaucratic, and there are a lot of employees who are just there for the money, rather than focus on doing a great thing. Unfortunately I see this ship sinking in the long term. There are no growth opportunities here other than to get the company's name on the resume and go somewhere else.

Pros

-okish salary if you survive to get a permanent contract.

Cons

-On contract, brace yourself to get fired any minute without warning. -incompetent management in Cork, they mainly don't care about the employees, you are just a number. -no career prospect available even if you deliver best performance ---> see incompetent management -guidelines are ridiculous, US fingers into European decisions how to operate the company. -too big and too cumbersome. Operates like a bureaucracy of a country. -they do not give a dime about their employees -statistics and number crunching is important, not the human side of the employee.

Pros

good healthcare (albeit expensive and goes up every year just enough to consume any raise you might have received), 401k, paid time off structure is average/decent (i.e. two weeks paid vacation per year, some paid holidays)

Cons

high stress, low compensation, poor management, no trust, very low annual raises, job expectations/requirements change more frequently than it is possible to keep track of, little room for advancement, politics. need i continue? i certainly can. must work most holidays even if it falls on your day off and usually told about it with very short notice and penalized if you're unable to work. shift changes every three months with no control of what you get. keep going? i could say more, but I think you get the point already. oh yeah, horrible work/life balance as you are expected to be completely "flexible" and totally rearrange your life at every whim of the company in the name of "change"- which would be more appropriately called "control".
