Pros
Salary is somewhat higher than at the majority of Amsterdam-based companies.
Cons
Booking used to be a fairly comfortable place to work. Unfortunately it has deteriorated into a politicians' playground, which most of the competent workers and managers preferred to leave, some at a financial loss. New CEO replaced Dutch top managers with his American buddies, turning the company into a typical US-style corporation. If that wasn't bad enough, the expectation of impending layoffs, cancelled promotions, and the virtual impossibility to change teams finished off workers' morale. It's no surprise that Booking keeps hemorrhaging talent at an accelerating pace. If you think of joining Booking right now, think twice. You'll end up working with crazy management and systems that are falling apart with no one in sight to help.
