Pros

Free lunch during the week, snacks and drinks, benefits are good. That's pretty much it! That's pretty much it! I need to write 20 words so here you go!

Cons

I gave 3 stars only as I believe that there are good people working there, but if there was a rating for management I would give 2 stars and I'm being nice with 2 stars! Once I was hired I was pretty much just thrown into the wolfs Den and had to fend for myself! Very little guidance and training. No follow up on my progress just asked to perform many tasks and once completed no feedback or positive reinforcement. No thank you for the time put in just what can you do for me next. My manager was there. That's pretty much it just there! You are asked to think like an owner and work that way. That's all and good but how can you when you are not aware of much of the product or info on how to attack the area of weakness. If I were an owner of my own business I would know how to go about it because I know my product and I know the focus! Without having the proper information how can you! Poor management guidance and support and as I mentioned there are some good people working there but the majority act as if they are there for a paycheck and rather not get to know you and rather just do there work and get out! So you can have great benefits but the culture and management need to be there as well cause I rather have a great working relationship with my colleagues and good management if it meant having less benefits!

Thank you for your feedback although it’s disappointing to hear that you didn’t have a more positive experience here. We take it very seriously when employees choose to leave TripAdvisor, and we want to understand why so that we can address the appropriate issues. As is true in many organizations, customer support can be a fast paced and challenging department, which may not be the best fit for everyone. We provide employees with many tools and resources to help them succeed, but we recognize that there’s a learning curve. I agree that management support is crucial. While there’s always room for improvement, I’m proud of the significant strides that we’ve made in both employee and manager development over the past several months. In alignment with our core value “ we never stop learning,” we continue to invest heavily in employee training programs. Thanks again for your thoughts and we wish you the best of luck in your new role. - Karl Marriott

A JOKE

Pros

- great benefits/perks - catered lunch - gives back to the community - smart people - awesome product

Cons

- HR team is a joke. talk about the most useless group in the company. if you tell your HR rep something be prepared for the entire company to know. The leaders of this group are the worst i have ever seen - Managers who can't manage. - Lead by fear and intimidation - Speed wins isn't real. Everything takes forever to get done.
