Whatever it will be, it will defy logic🤔

No open reqs in Wexford or Cork. All headcount going to Dublin. Makes sense?
Not really. They own wexford office, wexford and cork are cheaper to staff than dublin. They want to cut costs bit don't look at this kinda thing.
Wexford and cork will be gone within a few years.
Growth Centers: Pune, Manchester, Lake Mary, Wrocław, and Pittsburgh. Anything else, it’s a cr*p shoot
The majority of functions previously located in the United Kingdom are now in Poland. After several months of transition, I notice a lot of incompetence, frequent absences, staff turnover, and very little responsiveness. Anyway.. service quality always takes a backseat to financial considerations
I have worked with Poland and India in the past and I can say with confidence, they are incompetent mo--ns
Poland and Israeli cybersecurity are actually the best in the world. Neighbors like Belarus, Romania and the Soviet Union sort of had a way of forcing them into that role for simple survival. The U.S.A. is far behind both them and China. But of course we’ll always have the prettiest CTOC which is really only giant redundant monitors since as we all have laptops.
Who’s Kool-aid have you been drinking? Poland is only mildly better than India! If it wasn’t for the folks in the US monitoring what everyone is doing, we’d be in a whole lot of trouble right now. The only issue with the US employee is that we’re gullible enough to stick around and teach everyone how to do our jobs before we get the ax!
There is no value proposition in the U.K. Only a handful of relationship managers are needed.
Poland operations rank at the top for quality. Likewise with Poland technology workers.
United States sadly is mildly competitive with India. BNYM is making some really good moves recently.
Polish sausage is very good. Polish bank operations, not so much
To the id--t who said Dublin isn't safe
Dublin is to very safe for so many reasons:
- New Office, to house a huge amount of staff, scooping up all open reqs and roles from the povs in Wexford and Cork
- Senior Managers always feather their nest👌, so As, AIS and CT execs will feather themselves with expensive roles under them to protect themselves. Dublin is superior to many UK and Ireland locations in terms of headcount availability.
Yawn, never fear
Many US non- growth offices are actively training and moving jobs to Poland.
I reckon Brussels, Netherlands and Germany are high on the agenda
Poole Office, UK. Office is really old, no recruitment now, all recruitment has moved to Manchester which is the ''strategic growth location''.
Dublin isn’t safe. They’ve been moving jobs (and entire functions) to Poland for some time. I don’t see them closing the office, but they’ll downsize it, just as they will with London, Manchester and elsewhere in Europe.
I would say Manchester and London are safe (though London might have RIFs due to high costs, but with Richard Gordon there I think it’s somewhat safe), and best of luck to everyone else.
Netherlands, Germany, UK
