Organized Chaos - Extremely High Turnover

Operations

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Most of the employees in the Galway site are genuine and hard working and there was a time that there was a positive outlook on the future here. People still want to do well but this is becoming more and more impossible because of the lack of forward planning, under resourcing and terrible local leadership which in turn results in burn out and currently excessive resignations and turnover

Cons

Currently I would strongly advise anyone to reconsider working here. It is not a good place for stress, anxiety or a good work life balance. The job you are hired to do will become 5 times what was expected of you and you will be at fault. Set up to fail is kind of how it rolls here. There are so much more opportunities out there
