Pros

- By far the smartest people i've ever worked with, and most people are more than willing to help out when needed - Great opportunity for improving your skillset. You have the opportunity to work with a wide variety of projects and technologies - Good perks (health care, free lunch, etc, vacation/sick time, etc)

Cons

- As stated in other reviews, the image doesn't always match the reality. There's a foosball table, video games that we're essentially discouraged from using - Communication between marketing and engineering can use some work - Initial salary was good, but subsequent raises didn't seem to match up with management feedback - What others have said about the inherent "fear-based" way of doing things is definitely still there - Very little praise for a job well done

Great place to work but disjointed senior leaders with distracting politics

Pros

Tripadvisor's new strategy and focus is refreshing for the business. There are great initiatives that are placing Tripadvisor in the forefront of travel and technology that will give travelers great reason to use its platform. People are generally excellent to work with and are highly qualified. A lot of superb product managers, engineers, data science, and analysts across the business.

Cons

Senior leaders struggle to work together and the undercurrent of politics is really distracting at that level. Feels difficult to work together across functions sometimes, with passive aggressive culture of "pointing fingers".
