Pros

Some great people work here for some reason. I worked alongside some very talented developers, product owners, and architects. It’s easy to keep a good work life balance, I never worked above 40 hours in a week ever.

Cons

Management could not be more clueless, flailing around aimlessly like a rudderless ship. Trying a new strategy every four months, no surprise that nothing works out when you never give anything time to cook. Constant reshuffles of teams and priorities, everything constantly felt like we were just lines on a spreadsheet being played with until it looked good, with no thought given to the real world human beings that those lines represented. The most recent round of layoffs were done in the most unprofessional haphazard way I have ever seen in my entire career, leaving the whole company hanging for two weeks waiting for news. Career progression is utterly meaningless, I received multiple promotions that meant absolutely nothing, no raise or anything. Compensation is subpar for the industry, unless you are in the C-suite of course.

Pros

Lots of people have been at Sabre a long time and really care about the company

Cons

Excessive office politics, made worse by the way HR deals with issues (or fails to, even when they are informed), with promotions and raises based on politics rather than merit or performance history

People / Fresh grads with sound technical skills don't come here

Pros

Good pay. Laid back work culture

Cons

Too many layoffs. Financially company is not doing good. Management is here to just suck the money. Technical leads and management are way behind other tech companies. People with sound technical skills don't come here. Hire and fire policy continues. They will hire fresh grads and fire them if layoff comes. That is the strategy of management. Too many internal politics. If you are good at it you will surely survive. Zero career growth.
