Pros

When you look at the job responsibilites and the low Euro pay and compare them to TA's USA or even Ireland, there is none. The only perk is that you can work from your home county for 90 days remotely although there is alot of paper work to complete and hoops to jump through.

Cons

Base salary for a BD in "Sunny" Spain is 22K Euro, approx 26K USD with another 10K in commissions for a whooping 32,000. USD salary. The same position in Dublin is approx 80K Euro or 120K USD. In the USA the pay is even higher than this. The company allegedly intends to send USA employees to Spain for a "European Opportunity." TA is defintely expanding their sales and marketing floors in tax friendly Spain. The problem is: it's not friendly to the employee. 5 minute break times only, every hour and only a half hour lunch round out the dismal employment experience here. Their benefits like the "Cobee" card actually dont pay for you lunch or transportation as you are told in the interview. Stock options are minimal. No real health benefits her as health care in Spain is free.
