Booking.com reviews

Hotel Ninjas was acquired by B.com and after 7 months the company was shutdown, mainly because they bought Buuteeq, an US company, that had a similar product. It has a lot to do with politics also. The Hotel Ninja team was the best team of people I have ever worked with, they could of built any product with very high standards. But B.com instead of reusing the team they fired them, only to hire some of them back afterwards. B.com sells itself as a startup spirit company, but in practice it is not. It is a massive company that is only driven by profits and bulling. From a technical point of view the technology is not appealing, the core of the system is written in Perl and MySQL for persistence. The code base is massive, and the only way they can keep it going is by hiring gurus from the Perl and MySQL communities. I was not impressed by what I saw and by how we were treated.

Pay is very low for the market and skill sets being used. Multi Lingual associates are paid far under market value
