Pros

I work in one of KAYAK's APAC office - Global company with a startup culture - Most colleagues are easy going and very willing to share ideas and teach - New things to learn every day about travel and tech - Management style is quite flat, lots of lateral mobility (roles, responsibilities, locations) - Encourage work-life balance - Teams are quite international - Able to work with colleagues from various global offices - Free snacks and drinks at the office - A good amount of holidays and allows working from home on occassions - Generous tuition allowance so you can sign up for courses - Reasonable pay

Cons

There is not many cons but a few things to keep in mind - Since the work culture is quite flexible, you have to be self-discipline to make sure you get things done - While having good lateral mobility, upward mobility and its requirement can be unclear at times - There could be resources constraints at certain teams and things might not move as fast as you wish - You have to take ownership and be self-driven to make things happen and be bold to raise ideas backed with data, in other words, you cannot wait for others to tell you what to do - Since we work with international colleagues on a daily basis, you likely need good English to communicate

Pros

It´s a very open and international company with a positive mindset. There is also a lot of talent employed, which makes it easy to learn and grow in your role.

Cons

Work processes and communication can definitely be improved so that there is not an overload of information, but also that every employee gets the information needed.
