Great Place to Grow...Slowly

Pros

Opportunities to work on lots of different programs/projects Good benefits Supportive colleagues

Cons

Being acquired by Direct Travel has changed/streamlined some HR and benefits responsibilities which is NOT ideal. Some Account Executives are too involved in operations and seem to be grandfathered in, so nothing is said or changed.

Too Much Bureaucracy, Not Enough Action

Anonymous employee

Business Outlook

Pros

In general, there's so much turnover, that "new blood" is constantly being injected. Which can be a good thing, but is causing client interruptions and service issues. Although the management would like to believe there is a "family atmosphere", these are just words and when it comes down to brass tacks, your opinions are not respected like family and you are not supported like family.

Cons

Real downsides to a culture going through massive change without a leader who knows how to institute change. Management spends lots of time planning changes that cannot be implemented, because there are so many levels who all must approve/buy-in. Account Executives who have long-tenure (and who don't buy-in to changes) are left to do their own thing - and others are told to look the other way. This causes misunderstandings and undermines authority.
