Pros

None. I guess the reputation of the company name is attractive but the culture is nothing like they lead you to believe in their propaganda about employees coming first

Cons

Horrible organization skills. Say they care about employees but only care about themselves and are dishonest about the real position during the interview process

Pros

• Decent salary, stock option, ESPP available • Peer-level colleagues are very good, friendly, open to new ideas • Good snack program • First, two year is really very exciting • Great company for college graduates

Cons

• Working days are very long, for a senior engineer position you can expect meetings with the USA till 7 pm (sometimes till 8). And day starts at 9 am. Too many meetings. • Career growth is very limited (if you have the ambition to grow in technical ladder, then this company is not for you) -- Some people already complained about favouritism (read other Glassdoor reviews). • Majority of the managers are good at talking and has less technical knowledge. As this company grows rapidly, this becomes a major issue. Management value people who is a good story teller. • With the growth of the company, they are becoming more process oriented. This is too much sometimes. • Dublin App dev team depends heavily on the USA. Dublin team don't have enough freedom for a technical decision (this is one of the reasons to have so many late night meetings). • After two years working as an application developer, your learning scope is very limited. Once you have worked in (almost) all xpresso frameworks, there is not much to learn and the job becomes less challenging. • Technical interview processes are very easy this is one of the reason lots of candidates (who are not so good technically) got offers.
