Tripadvisor reviews

Career opportunities and growth are extremely limited. You are told to manage your own career and there are resources available to you, but when you try and use those resources or have career conversations with your managers you get nowhere. Open roles are often not "opened" at all but instead people are hand selected to move into them based on preferences from upper management. A lot of decisions are made based on who upper management likes and you have to be constantly worried about getting on someone's bad side and blacklisting yourself at the company. The pay is not at all competitive and there's no transparency into what the range for any role should be. The raises are minimal each year and if you received a spot bonus or a promotion within the last year or two it will be used against you to make your annual raise that much lower. Overall there's no focus on retaining the people they have, which is why so many people are leaving.

-- Extremely risk averse (specifically Cruise Critic) -- "Speed wins" mantra = shipping sloppy products 24/7 -- A crushing amount of tech debt -- Revenue-only focus, does not care about "tending the garden" for long-term sustainability -- Routinely make poor biz choices (Tripadvisor Plus, anyone?) that derail the org -- Leaders have no training and it shows -- Poor compensation (read below for more info) -- Abysmal financial support toward proper resource and tooling -- Diversity goals are a smoke screen -- Constantly focused on all of the wrong things -- There's no culture or belonging, even within the ERGs (this is a clock in, clock out company)
