Pros

- Autonomous, but accountable culture. Freedom to find solutions to hard problems. - Fast moving culture. Teams ship quickly, and weekly rituals like demos encourage fast shipping. - The best data science talent in Dublin. - Cutting edge engineering technologies and techniques. - Good work/life balance. No late night calls to crazy time zones. - Just over 100 people in an open plan space, so you'll connect with everyone you work with. - Excellent mix of mature and experienced colleagues, and ambitious colleagues earlier in their careers. - Strong career growth opportunities. The office is still growing, with learning and development teams in place. - Quarterly and Half Yearly OKRs (Objectives and Key Results) guide company and team goals, so you'll know how the work you're doing has an impact. - Open culture, low or non-existent "politics". - Lots of really interesting meetups in the office. - Generous staff discount to shop on Zalando.co.uk, with free shipping included. - The feeling of a startup, without the growing pains of a startup.

Cons

- No catered lunches or dinners, but plenty of choice nearby. Soft drinks, fruits, breakfasts are available. - Sometimes a bit chaotic to co-ordinate projects across multiple offices, but easily solved through trips to those offices.
