      Pros

      Neat benefits, awesome coworkers, good work-life balance. CEO is great and approachable, some levels of upper management are really good and easily accessible.

      Cons

      Could give back to the engineering community (open sourcing). Sometimes, feature development takes precedence as it helps revenue but at the cost of bad engineering. Have encountered that one bad apple too.

      I’m pleased to read your positive remarks about our benefits and the management team at TripAdvisor and I appreciate your constructive feedback regarding the product and engineering teams . We continue to invest in the collaboration efforts between these teams to ensure that we’re delivering the highest quality products to our consumers. We certainly do not want anything to compromise the quality of our engineering and it’s something we keep a close eye on. Thank you for the suggestion regarding giving back to the engineering community. We have open sourced several different projects, but we are always looking for more ways to contribute. As always, I’m happy to further discuss any concerns and suggestions in person or via Skype. - Nick Shanny, SVP Engineering

      Lunch. That's about it. Since I'm required to write 20 words then I just...

      Cons

      Terrible culture. Vindictive and polictical. You'll be pushed to work nights and weekends.

      Thank you for your comments, although it’s very disappointing to read about your negative experience here. Culture is important at TripAdvisor and is one of our most important challenges as we continue to grow. We recently launched a “purpose and values” project to help us better define our culture. As with many fast growing companies, we are often challenged with finding the balance between pushing ourselves to quickly deliver the best products to our consumers and ensuring a good work-life balance for employees. We continue to work towards finding the best ratio. Thank you again for your comments and best of luck with your new opportunity. -Adam Medros, SVP Product

      Thank you for your feedback. Finding the exact right ratio of meeting time vs project time and work-life balance is a challenge for many organizations. As a speed wins company, we definitely try to limit the amount of time spent in meetings, while also recognizing the importance of certain meetings to align goals and roadmaps. We’re always welcome to suggestions on how to improve on either area and I’d encourage you to speak directly with your manager or HRBP about any of your concerns. Thank you again for your comments. -Nick Shanny, SVP Engineering
