    Finishing a great trip to Dublin. Stripe has now been hiring here for 4 years. ✅ Super culture ✅ Friendliness to immigrants ✅ Tons of talented people ❌ Housing costs ❌ Immigration process bumpy/slow First 3 hard to create anywhere; latter 2 eminently fixable. Optimistic.

        A few months ago, we started hiring engineers here to build infrastructure + new products, and plan to hire hundreds in the years ahead. (Head over to http://stripe.com/jobs  for those and other roles if you’re interested!)

        Overall, Ireland’s openness, outward-orientation, humility, and generally exceptional craic coefficient make it a great place for technology companies. Excited to grow Stripe here in the years to come. 🇮🇪📈

        Limerick is open for business if Stripe would like some home comforts to go with our university graduates, housing, and lifestyle.

        Agree @jamesjcollins - Patrick & John - your team would be welcomed back to your 'old homestead' with an abundance of hot talent, innovation, a lifestyle environment hard to replicate & in a city & region that's growing, reinventing & leading! #Limerick4Stripe @IDA_MidWest

        Great vote of confidence but also look outside Dublin @patrickc - issue 4 disappears in a lot of places. Athlone - or even Limerick :-)

        Why locate in Dublin? housing costs a lot more sensible in Cork, Limerick etc

        Remote and/or locating outside Dublin could easily work around the housing problem.
