Pros

Shift system operates in Sandyford and you get 2 days off a month which is handy if you want to plan holidays. Also a lot of overtime so if money is your key motivator, you can earn good money on top of base agreed salary by working overtime, weekends, volunteering for bank holidays etc

Cons

The same can be a con for some as they find it hard to manage work life balance.

Pros

Great company and good employees

Cons

This is one of the worst places I have ever worked. They do not care about their employees here; to them, you are just another number. They get upset when you use your sick days, even though they are a legal right, and then retaliate against you by punishing you when you return to work. And be careful about filing a complaint with Human Resources because they are two-faced. Instead of helping you, it often ends up backfiring on you. That is why no one feels comfortable going to them. This company does not appreciate or value its employees unless you have connections or favoritism. Management, starting from the top, has no clear direction. Everything constantly changes, even when it is not the best option, simply because someone higher up decided it. The environment feels outdated and authoritarian, like something from another era. There is a lot of hypocrisy, resentment, and abuse of power.
