Pros

Great salary, quiet place, talk directly with CEO, great environment

Cons

NO plan B if the project is cancelled, NO relocation package, NO payback your travel expenses in case of dismissal, Delay to provide post-dismissal documents and information, The company promised to be responsible for me and my family when I arrived in Ireland and it didn't really happen, it was just a vain promise. I received a job offer while I was still in my country, I moved here with my family for a two-year contract. Before coming to Ireland, I asked what would happen if the project was cancelled or if Storm had other projects that I could work on, how the company would help me, all responses were positive, so I decided to move permanently to Ireland with my family. A week after starting work, the COVID-19 pandemic situation occurred, some projects were cancelled, Storm decided to deduct the amount of 5% on the first payment and 10% on the other consecutive payments, this measure should keep everyone's jobs without dismissal of anyone. The project I was working on was cancelled and I was informed that I would have a month to find another job, which did not happen. Storm put me on another project for another 30 days, but after those 30 days, I was fired. Storm deducted 5% of March's salary, 10% of April's salary and 10% of May's salary. When I started to work in the company, I asked for a loan to help with my relocation, the amount of the 4 instalments was discounted in a lump sum of the last salary and the 25% of discounts wasn't payback. When I asked, so many times, to CEO he says "as a gesture of goodwill, we are able to deposit 500 euros to help you", What? isn't a gesture of goodwill, I worked for it and I want my money. Because of them, I had difficulty to support my family here and also to pay the bills. I understand the unprecedented situation that occurred but you are irresponsible, didn't pay what they owe me (I worked and deliver all that I requested to do with positive feedback from customers), an irresponsible discount of a lump sum of the loan without understanding the employee side, I had luck to be entitled to get the benefits from the government, Otherwise, I would go starving with my wife and an 8-year-old child also without a place to live, without possibility to back to my country because we leave all in there. If you are an ex-pat coming to Ireland by the Storm contract, I suggest you put on contract a clause like "in case of dismissal before the 2 years contract, Storm will be required to pay all relocation expenses".

Pros

Easy access to CEO, good work/life balance, quiet office.

Cons

Client cancelled the project and Storm didn't try to keep me working, if you're an expat ask about if your job is attached to a project, because I moved to another country for this job and the storm let me go after 20 days of my arrival. They should have a plan b for this situation: p.e reduced work hours, work in internal projects etc. Is irresponsible do that to someone.

Central location in Dublin makes it easy to reach Good choice of lunch options locally

Cons

Hired extremely poorly at leadership level. Salary well below the market rate Little consideration to work life balance Pitching to be a consultancy but little thought leadership Poor sense of team, have lost a lot of good people due to low morale.
