Bright Team, Good Pay
Bright Team, Good Pay
Ability to work in large-scale products, with very bright, very talented, top-of-industry engineers. The culture is also very good and healthy. Compensation and perks are above market average.
Still pays less than Google or Facebook (although compensation is being matched to Amazon now).
Much of the knowledge is still in Redmond, so it's sometimes hard to find the right people for knowledge sharing.
This is slowly changing as Dublin keeps growing and owning more projects.
Match compensation to Google and Facebook, so employees don't really have any reason to move out.
