Pros

Great culture, environment and people. Work from home.

Cons

Work from home also has its disadvantages such as not seeing co-workers as much as you would like. 401k is also not good.

Pros

OpenTable really seems to value its workforce and continually looks for new ways to engage staff. They have a clear-cut vision and set of goals for growth.

Cons

During my time and since my time, the CEO keeps breaking up the operations department. He breaks it into pieces shuffling each component under a different VP. Then when a decrease in morale and productivity is noticed, he combines them back. Then breaks them up again. Across the org, though, there seem to be several exec changes that make it difficult to keep up.

Pros

In my view the best kind of people to work with are big brain, small ego people who like to get stuff done and have fun doing it. This is definitely the OpenTable culture. People are nice but like to go after opportunities and results. Work hard/play hard culture. Solid compensation and benefits. Meritocracy environment where ideas that get resourced and launched are based on data and testing versus hierarchical decisions. Awesome office space, location and parties.

Cons

Too many goals at times. Sometimes it is better to pick one high level goal for the year and nail it. Loose performance management is quickly being replaced by a much more well organized approach. Limited training and development.
