Pros

The people here genuinely want to help, contribute, and be a part of something great.

Cons

I am not sure who makes the decisions here, but every single one is disappointing. It's hard to tell whether we support the owner, traveler or neither. The changes being pushed out benefit neither. New employees are overqualified and hired under false pretenses. Current employees are dragged through the mud. Employees who used to enjoy their active assistance roles have been reduced to robotic disappointment machines. FlipKey certainly does not support the employee. We are not fooled by kegs in the kitchen, we deserve respect and the opportunity to take pride in our work.

Pros

For the most part, great colleagues regardless of rankings who are willing to answer your queries at any time. Awesome get-togethers organized by the young and vibrant recreational committee. Great benefits too.

Cons

Salary stays stagnant with very minimal (emphasize minimal) increments and no bonus. Make sure you're getting a very good basic salary! Not all management are gusto and on-the-go. Some are hibernating and know nothing but take credit for solutions their team minions come up with. Different employees feel differently about their respective team and managers so it really depends on which team you're in.

Pros

Many promotion and raise opportunities if you do great work. Many smart people to learn from. Product is getting better and better. Business is doing very well. You will learn many interesting things about running a large website. Company favors incremental changes with metrics and emphasizes speed to market.

Cons

Nearly impossible to do an overhaul of a major page or a component, because it's so metrics driven. But it does happen sometimes, if the person pitching the idea is persuasive enough. Related to the previous point, it's hard for designers and engineers to innovate and get company to invest on various ideas so they keep those to themselves. This is reflected by low hackweek participation rate and low activities in open source community and local tech events.
