Rife with Favortism - Anonymous employee Priceline.com Employee Review

Pros

Smart peers to work with.

Cons

Unless you are in the good graces with the upper management, your voice is not heard. Favoritism is rampant and it is not even hidden. There has been a lot of chaos and reorganizations taking place over the past few years that have only exacerbated the problem of favoritism. After the CIO was unceremoniously fired, a new reckless, incompetent CTO took his place and bullied his way around with an ax, slashing and cutting managers at will and bringing in his own "buddies" to continue the carnage. Left in the wake are a bunch of good people either let go, or quit in justified disgust. HR personnel are gutless to do anything about it, but then again, in their defense, they are also in fear of their jobs. Privately, they will acknowledge what's happening is wrong, but publicly can't or are unwilling to interfere, even though that is their job - pathetic! Do yourself a favor and avoid working for this "wolf in sheep's clothing" company! They really don't care about you - their actions belie their words. They only care about themselves... don't find that out the hard way!

Respectfully, we do disagree with your perception of our work environment. Over the past couple of years, priceline has worked diligently to evolve and advance, and change can be hard - and the rationale behind that change can certainly be viewed differently by different people. As we have updated our technology stack, certain skillsets have needed to evolve. While we respect your perception that you saw favoritism, we operate on a merit system - “favoritism” is earned, not simply handed out. We reward and promote employees based on merit. While we may disagree here, we do take all feedback seriously and appreciate you sharing this with us. I’d encourage you to arrange for a confidential conversation with me or someone else in People & Culture to share more so we can better address your concerns.

Pros

- Back to office minimum is 2 days a week which in NY is very good - Solid and stable company, lean and profitable in Booking Holdings - Opportunity to work on many topics - Good culture amongst peers and colleagues. I've found people very helpful and collaborative. - daily catered lunch in office

Cons

- Being lean means prioritizing ruthlessly, so sometimes initiatives will have to go the backlog - I did find that a lot of people take on more than their JD (there's amazing accountability), which also means that people can be very busy.

Thanks for the thoughtful review! We’re glad to hear you’re enjoying the flexibility of our hybrid model, the collaborative culture, and the opportunity to work across a broad range of projects. You’re right that we operate with a lean approach - it’s something we monitor closely to make sure teams have what they need to succeed. We ask teams to stay focused on the work that will have the biggest impact, and that sometimes means making tough prioritization decisions. If day-to-day priorities ever feel unclear, we encourage employees to partner with their Manager to help align on focus areas and impact. Thanks again for the feedback and for being part of the Priceline team!

Pros

Some teams support their employees and work on interesting projects.

Cons

Do not work for this company. My boss was so incompetent and unable to use techonology, she falsified PIP paperwork using a chronic health disability while lying that I did not complete my work -- in an attempt to fire me so people would not be able to see how poorly she understands the field of technology. Unforunta3ely for her, AI has adigital footprint when she realized she was caught and there was proof she was lying she fired me to cover it up. Long story short is I won the battle and would adivise anyone and everyone interested in technology or working for a company that has checks and balances on incompetent managers DO NOT WORK FOR THIS COMPANY.
