Pros

The benefits are reasonable. Work / Life balance is actually pretty good (when not heads down on a project). Have a great CFO (who was better before Sean took over).

Cons

Still no big sales. Customers don't trust Sabre and thus are abandoning them. The software is over 40 years old, not extensible and is too fragile; causing outages is too easy. After a year of Sean Menke at the helm, there still isn't any real plausible strategy. Thus, with Project Atlas winding down (the focus on stability; that really didn't do what it was supposed to do), the teams are now trying to focus on the future. But going in the direction that they say they want to go will just mean losing more to Amadeus. Wanting a culture of 'action' and holding people accountable are great - if people only knew what they are supposed to be doing and where they were supposed to be going.

Pros

Friendly coworkers and managers Good PTO Hybrid work schedule

Cons

Frequent layoffs Unreasonable work expectations No upward movement Low pay vs market Some departments don’t abide by hybrid expectations, so your team may be there 9-5 three days per week while another team shows up once or twice a week for only a few hours. Overly focused on AI while the stock still underperforms.
