Pros

- Flexible work arrangements - Homeworking facility - Subsidised canteen with decent food in Dublin

Cons

- Horrible working climate, best people are leaving the corpany week after week - Reorgs are happening every few month, due to utter lack of strategy and direction - Workforce is completely demotivated and cynical - Pay reviews were poor, even when times were good - Business is driven through time keeping, prospecting and other MIS systems, as opposed to customer focus - complete lack of leadership from senior management and retrechment - CYA culture is predominant - middle management is increasingly being taken over by managers from BT Northern Ireland, who have no experience working with large MNCs, but are used to more beaurocratic systems, dealing with public sector and SME companies
