Pros

Great company to join at a pivotal time in its growth trajectory. Employees are incredibly smart and collaborative, office perks are great - free catered lunch and dinner daily, weekly happy hours - and (most) leadership is open to your opinion and thoughts, you just have to take the initiative.

Cons

Since the company is moving from boot-strapped startup to real "big boy" company, there's bound to be growing pains. A lot of management change has been tough to weather for many, lots of starts and stops. I think we're headed in the right direction but it'll take some time to hit a stride, just hope we don't lose too many on the way.

Pros

- free food - prime office location in the city center

Cons

- no room for any meaningful career progression (over the last three years 2 people got promoted internally in Dublin. The company prefers hiring external profiles with zero relevant industry experience or with questionable reputations). - sales product training role has been open for more than a year which is proof that the company doesn't invest in training and development. There are also no indications that the role will be back-filled anytime soon. - lack of support and investments in non-core territories (non-UK). There is for example no trade marketing budget available for emerging markets - full stop. - very weak middle management that prefers bullying tactics over open and constructive dialogue with the people that are in the trenches. - zero strategy planning. - slacker culture (specifically among middle managers). - very bleak outlook when looking at a possible IPO (no headcount to grow the bottom-line, massive client churn, no self-service product...) - the QC technology stack is a clear acquisition target but a potential acquirer doesn't need the trading desk that QC has bolted on top of this technology. If an acquisition happens it will come with massive lay-offs and/or a big restructuring.

Pros

The people are great. It's a place you won't mind going every day. There are some really smart people here and everyone is so nice. There are some great perks and we are looked after well.

Cons

There is nowhere to go once you're in the door. After a number of years observing people in here it is clear that progression is not high on the list. We're focused on getting money in the door and prepping for an IPO, that we forget that the reason we're able to do these things is because of the people. As a company we "talk" about progression, but in fact unless you're on someone's good side it will never happen. We also hang onto to poor employees far to long.
