Pros

Galway site has some great people and lots of benefits. Good salary.

Cons

Projects are managed remotely by directors who micro manage everything. Engineers spend more time in Jira then coding and have to walk higher ups through code reviews weekly before moving forward with the project. No advancement offered due to falling market share.

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
