Vantaggi

Pretty international vibe with offices in Europe, Asia, and US. If you're lucky enough to work in a project that involves different teams, you might travel a lot for business. Great opportunity to learn new things using the annual tuition fee. Decent work-life balance.

Svantaggi

The only what KAYAK cares about is money. That's why they acquire smaller companies, destroy their product and brand and fire hundreds of people. The corporate culture is very American and very fake, with several layers of approvals for each public communication. Internal tools and technologies are lame and useless. None of the top management resigned or took responsibility for bad performance - and that's a standard in KAYAK because they would prefer to fire dozens of talented people instead of letting go inefficient, inexperienced managers and so-called VPs who are mostly pretending of doing something important.

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.
