Pros

-- Coworkers are very intelligent -- Flexible work schedule -- Standard perks -- beer and wine at happy hour, foosball table and video games, food all the time -- About to move into a giant new headquarters

Cons

-- Engineering culture has become very fragmented. In the years since I started, the social community has faded and it's harder to connect with engineers outside of your team. -- It's harder than it should be to switch teams, and hard to figure out how to advance your career.

Pros

Free lunches, free food and drinks almost all the time. Young, fast moving culture and a great office space, moving to an even bigger office in the future. Great product, trusted source of travel reviews, company is making money.

Cons

Turnover! It seems like most of the groups are being impacted by turnover, a lot of employees have left the company for greener pastures, the performance rating process and raise %'s being very low for a company that is very profitable, seems to be the common thread. The HR team is non-existent, adds no value to the employees or senior management, and has had more turnover than any other group at Trip, even the most senior leader of HR left along with the leader of compensation. Not sure Senior Mgt knows how bad the turnover problem actually is.

Pros

- Locations in Boston and Needham are great - Benefits are excellent - Team members for the most part are great to work with

Cons

- Compensation - Lack of transparency - Leadership makes decisions without truly thinking about how the customer will be impacted. - Spread too thin. Competitor companies all seem to have a focus on one area in the travel industry which they excel at. - TripAdvisor still seems to be struggling with shifting identies from a research/review based platform to a booking platform. - Bugs that are reported by clients can sit for weeks at a time with no fix and very slow communication updates. Speed doesn’t win here.
