Pros

Flexibility to work from home. Good working conditions/facilities. Open to using new technologies. Products are selling very well and strong company outlook.

Cons

Dublin office very isolated from rest of company. Product roadmaps change frequently. Some departments are understaffed (seems to be changing slowly). Pay increases are modest and can be less than cost of living increases year on year.

Business Outlook

Pros

The supporting teams are by far the biggest plus in the business. They work as a team for the good of the client, the way it should be

Cons

Leadership, at the highest level it's questionable and regional level in sales it's laughable. Some of the worst leadership I've comes across in almost 20 years of sales. Very poor very clicky
