Pros

Global Company gives you access to different languages, countries and individuals. Very diverse working environment. Amazing Benefits that cannot be found elsewhere. A lovely and friendly working environment

Cons

Can be considered US central, with not all perks being available to the other smaller offices around the globe. Can be very fast pace as well as a little overwhelming to start with, however everyone does help with this transition

Pros

Good brand. Nice perks and benefits. Nice HQ, with unlimited free parking spots. Lots of strong engineers.

Cons

Engineering hiring bar was inconsistent, and sometimes candidates who did poorly in interviews eventually got hired(as a result of significantly lowered bar). This is why you would see folks with 10-year software development experiences who are working as junior Software Engineer(not even Software Engineer II) at TripAdvisor. Now good engineers have to tolerate working with those folks, teaching them over and over again how to write code that does not suck.

Thanks for sharing your feedback and for the positive remarks about our perks, benefits and many of your engineering colleagues. Hiring talented and driven engineers has always been a top priority for us. We have several touchpoints throughout the interview process that help ensure hiring bar consistency across all engineering teams. Additionally, we recently launched interviewer training which helps interviewers to better evaluate candidates. True to our “never stop learning” value, we will continue to work with all teams to further develop their interviewing and evaluation skills. We appreciate you leaving your feedback as it helps us continue to learn and grow. As open communication is an important part of our culture, we encourage you to share any additional feedback with your manager or HR business partner.

Pros

Colleagues, environment, perks, office space, parking and the occasional staff party. Good for the short term or as a stop gap.

Cons

It completely lost it's culture due to Senior Management not listening and lacking compassion. Autonomy and decision making comes from the US. Lack of development and career progression.
