Pros

Great company culture and work life balance. Love the people I work with and love the job itself. The company offers incredible development training's and travel to other offices worldwide. Encouragement of best practice sharing and open environment. Opportunity for career advancement if you are willing to move.

Cons

compensation and benefits- pay is lower than most online travel companies. They are growing so quickly, they are opening offices all over the world and not trying to retain top talent and people who have been with the company since it started. They do not offer travel perks unless you consider, you have to pay for your perk and then they reimburse you only 100 euro. If you have a family and are not single or willing to travel, advancement will be difficult. They expect 50% travel and regimented scheduling for account managers globally. They roll out procedures without testing them. I used to love this company so much but it has changed since it started in Amsterdam.

Pros

A lot of great people from all over the world working there. Wonderful cultural and human experience.

Cons

A lot of corporate "bla bla" with nothing behind it. What is shocking about this company is that too many incompetent and immature people get promoted to managerial positions. Therefore there is a lot of chaos. Opposite objectives fixed for Hotel Department and Customer Service makes work illogical. The company doesn't seem to stick to its communicated mission. Lack of transparency. In many cases working well and hard will not be rewarded, there are very few career advancement opportunities and they remain reserved for those who are the best friends of their boss. HR division was also completely incompetent, which resulted in errors in payroll almost every month...
