Pros

Management believe in its employees, Dublin office is growing daily. Excellent company medical plan, free shares given to employees, actual bonuses, fussball table for fun at lunch, fridge is nearly always full of free food. Career possibilities in Dublin that other tech companies simply can't match. Thirsty Thursday beer nights - and most importantly - working on great technologies alongside some of the best technical consultants I've seen. Also moving into new home in April 2013!

Cons

Finding quality people who have the technical & consultancy skills required is difficult, fussball table has taken a battering... these really are the worst problems I can find!

Pros

NA, can't think of anything positive anymore. It's a micromanaging mess.

Cons

Guidewire makes majors shift every 2 years and the last one to take PgM out of PD into its own department is a micromanaging nightmare. We have more status meetings and spreadsheets to update than time to do any work anymore. 3 places to update if I want to take PTO. 7am and 7pm meetings are now the norm. 6 bosses in 10 years, no one can make up their mind on the direction of the company, projects start and are abandoned constantly.
