Pros

If you speak French,German or Spanish you have a save job you can be unhappy with for 10 years on the phone lines.

Cons

- callcenter metrics and and all the fun pressure - you are a number who creates numbers - it does not matter if everything is good. !There is always room for improvement!!! you will here this very often to pressure you to work more - mandatory overtime. yes in the contract it says voluntary. but if you don´t do them your yearly review will be bad and you wont get any raise or promotion. -management will "promote" you to supervisor or any other department if the business needs it happened to me personally - I asked, and if i don´t want to get promoted, the answer was we do not ask you.) - if you don´t befriend a manager you wont get promoted Also a big Con: Cork City. The rents are so high you need to share a flat/house with 3-5 other people.

Pros

We work with geniuses - in every department, We create innovative products that thrill our customers and create new product categories - who else can say that?

Cons

ZERO ZERO ZERO work/life balance. Execs have been saying for YEARS that they understand and will make it better. But in actuality, it gets worse every year! It is obviously top management LIP SERVICE because if they meant it, they could fix it tomorrow. They have hundreds of BILLIONS in the bank. If they REALLY cared about employee work/life balance, they could bring aboard the right number of folks to make that issue dissolve. Sick of hearing the lies. Just don't lie about wanting to fix it, when they clearly DON'T care
