Pros
As Betfair: Well structured security team Very knowledgeable people within teams Great Environment to work Dynamic As Paddy Power Betfair: Things got better only in Cluj and Dublin
Cons
As Betfair: Too many senior managers compared to analysts - You need to have more people to do the work rather than managers with NO direct reports! Incompetent Senior Managers and Heads on crucial positions Seems that you have to play the political game to "improve" As Paddy Power Betfair: Incompetent Senior Managers and Heads (+ Director) on crucial positions More political Respect from top to bottom and bottom up has been lost No planning Lack of knowledge on Senior Managers Less "techie" compared to Betfair CTO made some "bad" decisions with some appointments Clash in cultures Clash in technology and architecture + It was a clear takeover
