Vantaggi

Great benefits; 6 weeks paid leave, birthday off, lunch 3 times a week and breakfasts, not the worst remuneration package for software engineers in Berlin

Svantaggi

There are two schools of thought at KAYAK - those who want to work on sustainable, innovative projects with a focus on long term benefits and those who wants to work on the short term "throw-away" features and frequent A/B testing. Management tends to be more focused on the short term features and doesn't allow teams with longer term goals to flourish and show what they can do, and the company really suffers for it.

Vantaggi

Great benefits: Healthcare had great coverage and affordable monthly payments. I also really appreciated the work-from-wherever policy as well as all the office snacks. Fantastic people: I genuinely loved the people I worked with—they made me feel like I belonged and was appreciated. My manager worked to build me up, something that can't be said for a lot of places. Travel perks: The ability to travel for work made this experience incredibly rewarding.

Svantaggi

Slow mobility: Trying to get promoted felt like a moving goalpost—the expectations changed every six months and made it nearly impossible to get to the next step. Even then, the business was stingy about who gets promoted, which was incredibly discouraging after years of trying to prove myself.
