Vantaggi

Food, snacks and drinks Good people (if you are on a good team) Amazing benefits

Svantaggi

Terrible new CEO (Dermot) who came from TripAdvisor and changed everything for the worse. He got rid of the amazing management team which had years of experience in order to bring in his friends who have NO management and NO industry experience with tours and activities. He truly does not get it and I watched my colleagues become more and more undervalued and depressed as time went on. No growth, no company culture. It is now a sad, sad place to work run by a man who truly does not give a damn about you.

I’m sorry to hear you’re unhappy. I know change is hard, but in our case it was necessary. We needed to refocus on our business as a marketplace, so we did – and that change catalyzed our largest-ever growth phase (we’ve doubled TA bookings, and we’re leading TA’s non-hotel revenue growth of 26%). That’s a testament to every person on our team, not least of all our senior leadership. These leaders have long, successful track records in building online travel marketplaces; that’s why they’re here, and along with their teams, they’ve excelled by every measure. I know our San Francisco social team puts a lot of effort into culture (regular pop-ups, events and outings; a great food and beverage program; games/activities areas around the office). It’s an office-wide effort, and much of what they’ve worked on has been at the request of the San Francisco team. We encourage all employees to reach out with ideas and recommendations. We spend too much of our time at the office to be as unhappy as you sound. Our updated approach to legacy business methods has accelerated our growth and we’re headed in an exciting new direction. We’re committed to continuing in this direction and equally committed to those invested in taking this journey with us. We in fact care very much about the happiness of our people, and I’d be happy to discuss with you at any time, as would your HR business partner. Dermot

Vantaggi

Good compensation and benefits. Flexible remote work setup. Work-life balance is possible.

Svantaggi

The culture is highly political and lacks psychological safety. Favoritism and perception seem to matter more than performance. Collaboration suffers because people are more focused on protecting themselves and their headcount than supporting each other. Leadership is largely absent and disconnected from the actual work. Frequent layoffs have created an ongoing sense of instability. Entire teams lose key knowledge overnight, leaving others to figure things out with little to no documentation or support. Performance reviews can feel arbitrary and it's mostly gaslighting. If your priority is a steady paycheck (until it isnt), this may work for you. If you’re looking for mentorship, strong leadership, or a collaborative and forward-thinking environment, expectations should be managed.
