Pros

Comfortable office. Great people and colleagues. Enjoyed the benefits of being owned by Expedia. So the the vacation and sick time were very fair and there were some travel perks.

Cons

Don't plan to progress in your career. Small company and senior leadership has been in place for a long time. Can get a little gossipy starting at the top.

favoritism and commission destroyer

Pros

Booked nice vacations for the rich. Company occasionally sends their agents to various destinations to check out the nice properties that they book.

Cons

They do a lot of favoritism for agents that may not have good customer service and have poor work ethics. If you get in with the right person, you're golden and can do no wrong. They also make all kinds of allowances to deduct your commission no matter how hard you improve because they'll always find something else to ding you on in order to deduct your commission. They have a huge turnover rate.

Pros

It is a very interesting in the interview process. You are sold a Mercedes and realize once you are there it is really a Pinto or Yugo. Don't let the surroundings fool you when you walk in. Make sure you understand the compensation structure because pizza makers tossing dough in the air make more money than Travel Sales Consultant t in the first year. Be watchful off your lunch because they get stolen from the refrigerators due of the low wages. A few great employees and others who are trapped in this job because limited skills.

Cons

Very Fast paced and robotic and repeative work environment. Do not call in sick unless you have a doctors note or your employment will be terminated. It will cost you more to see the doctor than you will make in day or two in this company. A few unprofessional supervisors who you will question how they ever got into the role.
