Pros

25 holidays Sick pay Paid overtime (rare in tech) €2,800 yearly learning budget (real courses, certs, conferences) Proper maternity/paternity leave Free coffee, fruit, as if it would matter to anyone Gym reimbursement Managers who actually care will fight for you if you lucky to get one CEO updated, hope OT will be shifting back to normal.

Cons

Salary frozen at 2% yearly – after inflation & tax I’m left with €100 for the month. Zero market adjustment, zero monthly review. You’re always 20–35% behind Dublin rates. No remote work – office 3 days, even though CrowdStrike, SentinelOne, and half the industry are 100% remote. Internal moves impossible – can’t switch teams or countries without quitting and re-applying. To progress you have to quit OT and jump back to a role you want. No internal growth. All internal positions are filled in with external candidates so I don't even try anymore. Teams still tied to desks while competitors hire globally and fully remotely. Constant fear of layoffs is true story here as no one feels safe and secure.
