Pros

It is a stable and steady job with a relaxed atmosphere where you can work at your own pace.

If you push, you can do projects that suit you, although this depends on management.

Cons

Huge discrepancy in wages between different business groups in Limerick. One business group gives out higher salary increases %, more stocks and quicker promotions. Other business groups are slow to increase, little or no stocks and slow promotions.

This is unfair and very difficult to work in an environment knowing others doing the exact same group as you getting paid 10, 15, or 20% more than you, either at the same grade and/or length of service.

Advice to Management

Huge discrepancy in wages between different business groups in Limerick. One business group gives out higher salary increases %, more stocks and quicker promotions. Other business groups are slow to increase, little or no stocks and slow promotions.

This is unfair and very difficult to work in an environment knowing others doing the exact same group as you getting paid 10, 15 or 20% more than you.. either at the same grade &/or length of service.

Also, Huge variance in management styles. Some will promote and nurture talents of the team or individuals to suit what they do best. Help you out of your comfort zone and keep you motivated. While others will actively laugh, ridicule or belittle ideas or initiate, extra work or effort. Your life in Analog really depends on the luck of who and where you end up!
