Pros: Good salary offer for new employees

Cons: No learning experience, office politics.

Pros: - Working with intelligent people

Cons: I joined the company in, let's say, "rough times," so the overall impression might be a bit biased. But the main struggles were the following: * Instant context switching, based on the ever-rising problems. * A bit disorganized, lack of planning, estimating, etc. * Lack of resources (e.g., a project manager).

Pros: There are some nice people in the Dublin and Berlin offices. (Although the Berlin office is now nearly empty.) Actual ceilings, which are very helpful if you value sound not traveling too far. (Although everyone still wears headphones, it's a loud office regardless.) Recommend getting reviews on managers you'll be working under; quality is a bit hit and miss, with large differences.

Cons: Severe lack of promotion and growth opportunities. I saw multiple people who were waiting for suitable projects to display they deserved a promotion. While management was convinced they deserved it, they would string people along without taking action. High turnover of managers; none of mine lasted a year. Strong recommendation against joining a team with a manager who hasn't been at the company for less than two years in a management role. High employee turnover. High degree of politics makes it hard to stand out as a non-US developer. Male-dominated culture; very little diversity is present. Engineering is almost entirely male. Company claims to believe in meritocracy. Open-plan office. Company is skimping on providing a properly heated (winter) or cooled (summer) environment. Climate control is only active on workdays during business hours, making the office freezing cold during winters (all Monday because the heating needs to counter an entire weekend without heating, and each morning until a night's worth of cold has been evicted). A lot of people use blankets. Accessible toilet is used as a storage cabinet. Travel ban kicks in earlier and earlier each year as a cost-saving measure.
