Pros

Good company to work if your management is good, otherwise its hell.

Cons

I worked in the hospitality (formerly Travelclick) IT department. Initially, it was a great place to work with supportive leadership. However, after a key leader's promotion when other leaders left, everything changed. Their attitude shifted dramatically, and they started to act in a way that seemed to enjoy their power unchecked. If they felt challenged, they would fire employees, creating a tense environment. They brought in another leader who is highly controlling and prone to retaliation when they feel threatened. This person hires friends, making the workplace uncomfortable by creating unnecessary difficulties for others. This leader also sends excessive emails daily (even on Weekends and holidays), adding to the stress and overwhelming the team, seemingly to impress their superior. Most of the times he will be out and in order to show he is working he will keep on sending emails to show he is working. The overall environment feels tightly controlled by these two individuals, who rely on a network of friends to monitor and report on employees.

Pros

- Learning opportunities, every day brought something new to tackle or explore - Decent benefits package that covered the essentials - Competitive salary relative to industry standards

Cons

- Management is aggressively enforcing a hybrid model, even for remote employees, and is rescinding previously agreed upon contracts. There's a glaring lack of strategic vision from leadership. - If you're based in Europe or North America, job security is virtually nonexistent unless you're in upper management. Roles are being shifted to India, Colombia, and the Philippines, with cost-cutting prioritized over talent, experience, or loyalty. - The forced migration to Azure, compounded by poor planning, is draining resources. And employees are paying the price — not just through increased workload, but by being let go in recent layoffs (October '25). With many of the positions eliminated quietly transferred to offshore. - Layoffs are being justified as “market alignment” and financial necessity. Yet at the same time, the company continues to absorb small to medium-sized companies, raising serious questions about transparency, priorities, and long-term stability.
