Pros

In its hayday, Trip had a warm workplace environment where employees were knowledgeable, capable, and team oriented.

Cons

Drastic culture change in the last couple years as the company scrambles to find a direction, any direction. New management hires have brought in new culture that has everyone anxious, overworked, and looking out for themselves instead of the team. Cost cutting has led to loss of perks that made the nowhere suburban location bearable, and loss of lots of institutional knowledge as they layoff long term employees.

Thank you for your feedback. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed your time with Tripadvisor and found your fellow employees to be some of the best in the business. It is unfortunate that you feel like management communication and alignment on our vision are not as strong as they used to be. As a company founded on the principle of transparency, we work hard to ensure internal strategies and culture are communicated and followed by all employees.

Pros

The promise of an amazing culture pales in comparison of the actual culture, which is cult-like people who aren't very good at their jobs - but seem to get away with bad behavior and poor performance.

Cons

Shark-like brand and marketing people who are poor performers and afraid to take advice from skilled outsiders. PMs, who create mediocre product (take a look at the site) are scared of change and do not support active change.

Thank you for taking the time to provide your feedback. We do believe that our people drive a transparent, inclusive culture, and it disappoints us to hear that you did not find that to be true. While we are sorry to learn that you did not have the most positive experience with us, we’re appreciative that you shared some areas that we can improve upon.
