What do you like best about the leadership team?
Great managers and colleagues, clueless CEO that doesn't listen. I worked there for several years and end up leaving because the culture was so bad
The leadership are down to earth, work hard, lead by example and value the team.
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
No one calls the co-CEO to change his abusive behavior, and just say yes to everything he says even if completely unrealistic. See other complaints and reviews of the company here
Top management is terrible with a terrible culture, and co-ceo in Dublin needs to change leadership style
Review from Engineering Dept
Need to learn on how to manage, empowering employees

Learn o=how to be a manager from the top, the dublin co-ceo is clueless at how to do his job and manage from the top to motivate and empower the workforce
Review from Engineering Dept
Leadership should steer the ship in spite of top leadership often causing havoc b y changing minds constantly
What is the best part about your compensation package?
slightly better than market rate with great healthcare and benefits
Good salary and bonus is fairly paid
Paid well in this company
Review from Engineering Dept
Salaries are very decent, benefits are not, and inexistent in comparison with most other companies
Salary is fine although by the unsatisfaction at work probably not worth it
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
Not better than anywhere else, some lacking
Review from Engineering Dept
Work long hours with unpaid time, that's not how Europe does things and it's not looking after employees. They rave about how much money they o each year but that should be reflected on the workforce that get things done
Review from Engineering Dept
Not many benefits and salary is OK but not great compared to other companies and doing the same job
Review from Engineering Dept
Basic benefits,. they could give more training, there is none for the Job at hand. Consider the extra hours you have to work to sync from Europe with Asia and America it is not well paid. No overtime either, if there was overtime paid then it would be much easier to stay long hours
Most companies give a lot more benefits so they are better! There is no paid training for anything we do, food is just snacks and some fruits, beverages, Dublin CEO wanted us to work from the office even during lockdown which caused a lot of talk in the company
Review from Engineering Dept
What are some of the best things about your team?
They worked well together in spite of the Ireland's co-CEO unprofessional behaviors

Review from Engineering Dept
Good camaraderie in spite of not being happy to owner
Review from Engineering Dept
Good people, trying their best
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Treat each other fairly, give respect to receive respect
The co workers are just great but management gives us too many meetings where we are just listening and have little to say so it's a waste of time. They could just try to prioritize really important meetings instead and choose time accordingly. Suggestions for these weren't accepted unfortunately

People are great but top management is terrible. The co-ceo in Dublin has a tendency to insult and be quite rough with employees in the what he addresses them

What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
The competition fairs better in it's products
The top management has a tendency of ditching anything the workers do, regardless of scope and staff availability.
