Pros

We sell a great product and you get to work with people who are passionate about creating great experinces for our customers. Good benefits and pay is above average in the field of travel. I enjoy going to work every day and respect the senior management and their dedication.

Cons

I do not get to use all of the travel benefits available to me. Would love discounted air travel to see more of the destinations that we sell.

Pros

Most of the systems used are proprietary so you learn almost everything on the job. Management is interested in cultivating growth and making certain those interested in receiving opportunity for career growth are on the right path. Vendors often bring trinkets and provide lunch for the entire company which is pretty nice. The product is fun since you get to look at hotels all day and daydream of visiting them (opposed to working with computer chips or something boring). Benefit package is great, you receive medical, dental, vision, travel reimbursement and wellness reimbursement.

Cons

The company does not pay on the high end of salary scale for the positions here. They do try their best to be competitive and maintain with in the median salary base for Silicon Valley. However; the company allows for a work life balance, some companies with higher salary base expect employees to be plugged in 24/7.

Pros

The peers were the best part is this company, meaning those on the same level, categorized as agents.

Cons

Although they advertise as a sales company working with travel agents, it is a sales company working for travel agents. In times past, Classic was a company working with the travel agency world to assist in making luxury vacations for the agency’s clients. Now most book online and only call in for assistance completing or changing their online booking. Although some reservations are made with Classic’s agents, the majority of the work being done by them is changing what the travel agent has already started, thus less work, more time spent per call, making less commission, in a position that is based on commission.
