Pros

Good name to have on CV Scale,scale and scale - gigantic network with over 1mill servers smart people interview process - relevant questions, friendly and professional atmosphere role changes every 6-12 months - from coder to sysadmin to netadmin, etc...

Kontras

low pay compared to rivals in Dublin (Google, MS, Facebook) ridiculously poor benefits - cheapest health cover and worst pension scheme one can get on the Irish market combined with 3x years salary in case of death... no work-life balance - 10-12 hour days are the norm, 24 hour on-call shifts on consecutive days are not rare either no parking spaces for employees overtime is not paid - time in lieu is dependent on manager revolving door - main theme: stay for 2 years then leave and join the better paying Internet giants in Dublin (Google, MS, Facebook). poor facilities - place looks like crammed call centre in a third world country Avoid the following teams: DevSupport, NetOps, TechOps

Pros

Really smart people, a lot of opportunity for growth, always encouraged to be innovative, think big, and create something new. Competitive salary and benefits with other major tech companies. 100% self motivating work environment. No dress code and 4 legged friends are welcome.

Kontras

You have to be self motivated. NO ONE will hold your hand and tell you that you're doing a great job. If you need constant affirmations from management, this company isn't for you.
