Pros

Come join our team! I've been an employee for over 10+ years now, and I've yet to have a dull moment at work. Even as a remote employee the communication level has been on par as to if I was work in corporate. We have a great culture, with a team dedicated from top-down in leading with innovation in internal and external products, employee development, and ideas sharing. Every year we have many social events that bring employees together from around the world were we learn, share, suggest on new ways to advance our organization into the future. Oh and we have lots of fun while doing so. On a daily basis I get to meet new restaurant people, and I think they are the glue to our economy and are probably the hardest working people in any industry. Come and be a part in a company that has great technology, great people and great food for an ultimate well rounded employee experience.

Cons

Career advancement for a remote employee could be quicker

Pros

* It's a great brand * Great partners * Decent product with strong distribution

Cons

* Management style was heavily top-down, with decision-making concentrated among a small group of senior leaders. * This was the same when they were all working at KAYAK under the same group * I observed what I felt was preferential treatment of certain employees (notably of a certain ethnicity - IYKYK), which negatively impacted perceptions of fairness and inclusivity within the organisation. * The workplace environment could be highly stressful, and concerns raised by employees were not always addressed effectively. * Staff wellbeing, retention, and morale appeared to be ongoing challenges during my time with the company.
