Pros

bright people, good benefits and perks, free lunches, games, fairly relaxed atmosphere

Cons

terrible middle and upper management - elitist, rule by fear poor communication blame is the name of the game unprofessional HR - nothing is confidential morale is very low and declining still favouritism is obvious and shameless too much middle management the reality of TripAdvisor as described in the interview process is not what you get once you're in If you are an engineer at TripAdvisor you're gold, if not, be prepared to update your resume/CV soon Quickly becoming a corporate culture with all the negative implications that implies

Pros

The pace and work/ life balance are very manageable and they are still pro remote work which is a huge benefit as a lot of companies push return to office. The benefits and salaries are great compared to the industry standards.

Cons

Lots of turmoil, changeover, layoffs and chaos caused by a recent re-org. ELT does not have vision or innovation outside of “AI” and it’s hard to feel confident about the long term success of the company. Lots of white men who lack creativity.
