      Pros

      - Amazing benefits - Great company perks - daily/in the office as well as events held for employees - Things move very quickly. - New products coming out all the time and opportunities to work on new things - Lots of opportunities to make suggestions through contests, surveys, etc., regardless of job level

      Cons

      - Much of the communication between departments is done via email instant messaging - most of the time that is fine, but sometimes you need in person meetings.

      Great environment, a little heavy on the management

      Pros

      TripAdvisor treats their employees like gold! The benefits (other than vacation time) are the best around and the people working here are genuinely nice and smart. Truly the best working environment I have ever been in. I may have gained 10 pounds though due to the amazing free lunches and the unlimited "snack" wall.

      Cons

      As I mentioned above, they could be better about vacation time, especially for a travel company. You start with 3 weeks vacation, no personal days. They give "Summer Fridays" but you end up having to put in 40 hours during the week that you take a summer Friday so it doesn't really feel like a perk. Also, there are a lot of layers of management that probably do not need to exist. TA could save some money by eliminating a few layers. They can get a lot more productivity out of the staff they currently have.

      An opportunity to work with extraordinarily talented people in a flexible environment

      Pros

      Unlike their peer tech companies (Amazon, Google, Facebook...), TripAdvisor has the flexibility to allow people to move into new roles. If you don't like what you're doing, you can talk to folks and try out a new role. Engineers are regularly encouraged to rotate through other teams to get new perspectives and ways to work. In some cases, the movement is through to non-engineering departments. Again, unlike most places, TripAdvisor works to prevent the "round hole/square peg" problem.

      Cons

      It is a little intimidating to work with this many smart folks. You have to play at the top of your game. I would also prefer the office to be in a cooler location. Then again, we're outgrowing this space, so perhaps we will move.
