Pros

Company is definitely on the rise and growing. Talented and personable people working for strong leadership. Individual growth of the employee is valued by the company. Very accommodating work-life balance and tons of small perks to keep every day interesting.

Cons

Company is only getting larger, so if big companies are not your thing this may not be the best fit.

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.
