Great place to work

Pros

It doesn't feel like work. OpenTable is one of the most welcoming places to work, full of friendly, passionate people. Creating a marketplace for restaurants to serve diners is complex and interesting. Work/life balance. Perks at restaurants. Great stock benefits.

Cons

Efforts can take longer than they should. Better compensation can be found in the Bay. Longevity sometimes trumps execution for promotions.

Great Company Culture

Pros

The company culture at OpenTable is nothing short of amazing. Having worked for well know and prestigious companies in the hospitality industry in the past, I would say that the quality of life at OpenTable out shines all other companies. It's most certainly a "work hard, play hard" culture. Good humor is appreciated, and all employees are supportive and encouraging of their peers to succeed. It really is quite amazing. Plus the pay is pretty good and expectations/goals are realistic.

Cons

Working remotely can sometime be a little lonely, but I knew that when I took the job. The online interaction between peers does compensate a bit for the lack of in-person engagement. Overall, the "cons" are negligible in comparison to the "pros".

Pros

This is, hands down, the best job I have ever had in my life. I hope to make this a permanent, lifelong career. - Fun, friendly, supportive company culture - Excellent pay and benefits - Lots of autonomy - Perfect work/life balance - Hard work pays off well with bonuses and promotions - Opportunity for travel - Work with some of the best Chefs/restaurateurs in the world

Cons

The only down side to working for OpenTable is that it would be impossible to find another job as good in the future if I ever had to.
