Pros

Getting paid at the end of each month maybe? The only pro I could think of really...

Cons

This review is for Dublin office. Headline is self explanatory, which gives you all the information you need if you intend to work for this company. I saw people join and then leave within two months and go back to their previous employers (which is extremely uncommon in any other organization). Another phrase that would define MunichRe would be "incompetence" as I've never seen so much hatred from the clients towards a vendor in my whole life. Literally on my first week, I was asked to introduce myself to a client, but I got yelled at nonstop for one hour because of the mistakes that was done by the company before me. After seeing similar reaction from other clients, it didn't take me too long to understand the root cause and leave. What I never understood and will never understand is, going to a design workshop to collect customer requirements, but seeing "technical architects" and "business analysts" never take a single note, and then the sales team and project directors prioritizing night time activities with the customers and then blaming the new guy (me!) for not smiling or contributing to a meaningless conversation at 1 AM after an exhausting 5 day workshop... Not to mention nobody even acknowledging the productivity of those sessions (which ultimately ends in loud complaints, but you get the idea)... Do not let the old review date distract you, these people who ruined my experience are still there in senior management.
