Exploring roles in Dublin and have heard mixed reviews. I understand the benefits, but would love to get some insight on why people dislike it / choose to leave. Does anybody have perspectives to share on this? I understand internal transfers to other Google roles / locations, but apart from that, is there anything specific about the Dublin location that drives people to move on?

Nothing specifically bad in Dublin, it's just that many employees are moving here from their countries but not planning to stay for long. Therefore moves after 2-3 years back to their home country or a different location are common enough.

Dublin is not an exciting city to live in and the salary offered vs cost of living is not in pair. I’m working in Dublin office as I wanted to work for Google but can’t see myself staying there for long.

Dublin has its pros and cons. Google offers many (junior) roles in Dublin, and it's a great place to meet other international folks.

Before COVID, I had a blast while living and working in Dublin. Made lots of friends, and Dublin offers many fun activities. Then when COVID hit, there wasn't much to do and some folks moved back to their home country (me included).

The cost of living in Dublin are quite high, especially compared to the compensation offered by Google. 1200+ euro per month for an apartment is considered normal.

I personally found a new role within Google but outside of Dublin, so I won't go back anymore.
