Stressful/Terrible customers/Low pay
Pros: Decent management.
Decent company to work in
Friendly colleagues. 
Stock grant is nice. 
Gym is cheap
Cons: This review is for the technical support job only.
The money isn't worth the mental health issues you will get. 
Earn about 1400-1500 before probation --> 1600-1700 after probation
Average salary in Ireland is 37000. After probation you are on about 27000.
Rent in Cork is disgustingly high between 400 if crappy to 700 ish a month
High stress.
Terrible customers. 
Pretty much anyone will call you from 10 year olds to 90 year olds, so you can imagine the level of adaptability you will need. 
Nothing really technical about technical support -> if you have ever seen the IT crowd its similar. 
Most people burn out within the first year or 2.
Most people quit after having done 1 year so its just on their CV.
Internal job transfer has a lot of requirements so its probably easier to just quit and reapply as they tend to mostly recruit from outside unless its technical support where they need every random person to join them due to people quitting constantly.
