Bad pay, illegal hour, most staff leave after 6 months.
Pros
None. It's a bad job. Tesco or McDonalds would be better.
Cons
You'll get paid a few cents above the legal minimum for Ireland and forgo extra pay for Sundays, Bank Holidays and Christmas in return. This is one of the lowest paid jobs in Ireland. You will struggle with rent while you live in Dublin. Most staff leave after 3 to 6 months. The older staff are on the sweet heart contracts that are no longer given and are usually Irish. Now you will see one or two new staff member that are Irish. Irish people will not work there. Porter staff regularly finish at 11:30pm and start again the next day at 7:00am. Reception staff regularly finish at 11:00pm and start again the next day at 7:00am. You will also be expected to work 9 days in a row. This is Illegal, despite what your manager tells you. Workplace inspectors were called in to investigate these irregularities. Save yourself the stress on your mental health and apply for retail in Dublin. Tesco, Aldi, Lidl, Dunnes are always looking for more staff an they pay better and have better hours. From there you can find a better job.
