Pros

New HQ Genuine people Perks, free lunches, healthcare, dog friendly, 401k match

Cons

TripAdvisor has become the company I didn't want it to. It now has that big company feel. Our saying is 'Speed Wins' but that might be true for a few silo departments. The company now has as much bureaucracy and politics as EMC or IBM. Liven up the brand and take some risks too many people are complacent and won't do things that are interesting, especially in the Marketing departments.

Pros

The people here genuinely want to help, contribute, and be a part of something great.

Cons

I am not sure who makes the decisions here, but every single one is disappointing. It's hard to tell whether we support the owner, traveler or neither. The changes being pushed out benefit neither. New employees are overqualified and hired under false pretenses. Current employees are dragged through the mud. Employees who used to enjoy their active assistance roles have been reduced to robotic disappointment machines. FlipKey certainly does not support the employee. We are not fooled by kegs in the kitchen, we deserve respect and the opportunity to take pride in our work.

Pros

Compensation is good and the stock is on a tear. Good place to work if money is the motivation.

Cons

Work is not really interesting. You will work on a lot of one week tweak projects. Competitive culture. But also a culture of fear codified by a speed wins mantra. Management is cold and ruthless. Classic corporate America. The company will do well because of its ruthless attitude.
