Pros

At this point the only pro is that we are all working from home so we don’t have to see each other in this stressful condition.

Cons

We are under complete and utter stress 24/7. The company has made it almost impossible to do our jobs correctly. We’ve been put under the light of the APP that never works correctly and are still told we need to figure it out under a certain amount of time or else we will be written up. We are also being told that upper management is being pinned against each other in efforts to get rid of people. They have completely undermined the lower teared group of consultants and put them in a position where they have no room to move. Other employees are in a position where they don’t think there is any way they can positively come out of this job OK. It has become a disaster for a company I once thought was great to work for. These problems did not occur when covid-19 happened they already existed before then.

I appreciate you sharing feedback and I’m sorry to hear that your experience has been one of stress and frustration. We truly believe that it’s critical to our success that you feel supported in your role and that you have work/life balance, particularly in this difficult time. There are a lot of exciting, necessary changes being made to the Travel Experience operation that will allow us to be more efficient, more effective, and will enable success across the team. Building a strong culture within Travel Experience is a top priority for me, as is the wellbeing of our employees. I would love to understand more about your experience, and encourage you to reach out directly to leaders within support, your People Success Business Partner, or to me directly so that we can better understand our opportunities to improve.

Pros

Fast paced, plenty of room and opportunity to grow. Very good starting pay and ability to earn bonuses. Many remote work options. Strong culture and supportive leadership, with fun company events (like the Christmas party) that help people feel connected, even for the many remote employees.

Cons

The pre‑hire assessment is very strict and pass/fail. I’ve referred strong, experienced candidates who I know are good workers, but they did not pass the test and were not given the opportunity to move forward. It feels like the process may screen out some high‑potential talent who could otherwise thrive here.
