Biggest pro is that we are new in Europe and with Dublin being out EU HQ we get to create the strategy for each market and manage execution. In large companies teams are more specific and siloed, but here we get hands on experience, making a direct impact
Cons
Not all U.S teams consider international market nuances when making plans/process improvements.

- Benefits e.g. health care, LinkedIn learning - Flexible time off - WFH
Cons
- Hierarchy of departments, roles that involve customer facing except sales get underpaid and overworked. - Departments such as Sales that bring in lots of revenue to the company have the mentality that they are the 'boss' and you work for them. - The implementation Specialist department was understaffed with no prospect of hiring more people - Unfair remuneration model, Sales people receive large commissions to bring in clients but it's up to the Implementation Specialist to actually train the client and make sure they stay with the company I receive zero commission and my base salary is significantly lower - As of writing this review my last pay, which includes annual pay, has still not been received and I finished more than a month ago - No exit interview

Great benefits and leadership. The work-life balance at Block is unlike anywhere else I've worked, and I don't know many outside of Block that have it as good as we do. There's opportunity everywhere in this company, if you want something, there's a good chance you can go for it. The yearly compensation and merit cycles are nice. The culture here is great. I've spent the last 6 years of my career here and I don't see myself going anywhere other than "up" in the company.
Cons
The culture here overall is great. However it can get too liberal sometimes, and that's coming from someone who is very liberal. I would like to see the company find a healthy balance of being able to express their thoughts and beliefs without the harsh judgement towards others who don't align. The biggest issue I have is there is a culture that's been created where management can be too soft and would rather sugar coat feedback and not take necessary steps towards helping employees do better. For example, an employee with a good heart can continue to do the wrong things leading to failed outcomes, or projects taking longer. And instead of management removing someone from a project, they just continuously have the same sugar coated conversations and nothing changes. Very frustrating. It's a pattern I've seen with many leads over time time here.
