Pluspunten

Nice colleagues- made some good friends there Good Laya health insurance package Sometimes you get free stuff like ice cream and fruit

Minpunten

I felt like there was a culture of fear there. Employees were terrified of making mistakes. There were rumours that some employees were let go just because they had some mistakes in their quality. This is not right. People make mistakes and should be given the opportunity to learn from them. Every minute of your day is counted. You get 30 minutes for lunch and 2 15 minute breaks. If you exceed your break time you will get an email saying you exceeded it. Meeting time is also very strict and managers seem to be terrified of going over time. For example when our team had 15 minutes allocated for meeting time once the 15 minutes were up our manager told us to quickly get back to our desks and change back to available. There is no flexibility whatsoever. There are no public holidays for Cork office. You are even expected to work on Christmas day. Communication in the company is very poor. Things are constantly changing but employees are never really given reasons for the changes. They are just told that's the way it is now. The office environment isn't very nice. There are very few windows and hardly any natural light. The fluorescent lights are very harsh. I felt like teamwork wasn't really encouraged. Everybody was too worried about their own IPH (investigations per hour) and couldn't really take time to help others (Even though most people were very nice and would have liked to help others) . I feel this is a very individualistic culture (typical American culture).

Pluspunten

Echt slimme mensen, veel kansen voor groei, altijd aangemoedigd om innovatief te zijn, groots te denken en iets nieuws te creëren. Competitief salaris en secundaire arbeidsvoorwaarden bij andere grote technologiebedrijven. 100% zelfmotiverende werkomgeving. Geen dresscode en viervoeters zijn welkom.

Minpunten

Je moet gemotiveerd zijn. NIEMAND zal je hand vasthouden en je vertellen dat je het geweldig doet. Als je constante bevestigingen van het management nodig hebt, is dit bedrijf niets voor jou.
