Pluspunten

Great work life balance. Flexible work hours and ability to telecommute as needed. Fast-paced environment with opportunities to innovate and iterate on the current technology and product features. Multi-cultural and intelligent work colleagues. It's nice to work with people from all over the world.

Minpunten

Company is putting in a lot of effort to promote women. However, it seems like they are focused more on promoting those who spend more time on PR (publishing articles, etc) than those actually delivering results or contributing to the growth of their direct reports. Especially true in the Engineering department which is causing frustration not only amongst the female staff but the male staff as well. Global company with a lot of projects that span various offices so can have a lot of late or early conference calls. But this also adds to the positive of working with different cultures. Seems to be growing fast with multiple teams seeming to build the same things resulting in political jockeying at times. Seems like a waste of resources that could lead to unnecessary redundancies if not checked. US HQ building wifi is not always functioning 100%.

Pluspunten

Constant state of transformation is ripe environment for new hires and functional experts from big name tech companies

Minpunten

Pre-covid the culture was really special. Collaborative, engaging, people-centric, with a unifying mission to enable travel for the world. Since covid there has been a revolving door of executive leadership, and with each round, they throw out the current strategy to try something "new" without building from the current or past successes. Constant change, but no clear vision or strategy of what they are trying to change to. Lack of strategy and low risk tolerance leads to too many priorities with not enough investment to move the needle in anything. Quarterly layoffs, but executed quietly team by team so as not to make news. No psychological safety. Talent strategy since covid is to hire externally over internal promotions to gain "functional expertise" therefore difficult to grow your career. Siloed divisions not working towards common goal. Lacks operating model maturity needed for a company of this size likely do to revolving door of execs and priorities. A cash cow company with an identity crisis trying to be an AI innovator. Build vs buy mentality slows them down. Too many exec pet projects that aren't vetted with proper business cases.
