Pros: - Easy to get hired. - Booking has a party culture. So it's a fun place to hang out, but it's not a good place to work. - Friendly relationships between teammates. - It's a travel company.

Cons: - Too much in-company politics. - There are managers and high-level executives who are not familiar with tech, but they are taking tech decisions. - Booking loves Google and uses Google's products without considering any other alternatives, even if they know there are better options. - Employees are not valued. - I had bad experiences with the HR team and the payroll team. - Not a tech company. - Legacy tech and planning to move to another legacy tech.

Pros: The company provides a decent relocation package. It serves good lunches. Good hardware is provided.

Cons: When you relocate, the hell begins. You start working in the company with many arrogant people. A couple of trainings are provided, and that's all. The favoritism is key in the relationships, so most managers are close friends. Most of management is incompetent. A lot of senior developers don't code at all but poke other people, offending them or coasting. Very, very bad atmosphere at the office. Very noisy and uncomfortable. The rules against employees – I was surprised how they treat people. The receptionist can say "you're stupid" just for asking questions. I see a lot of burnt-out people with mental issues, so it becomes an issue to work there. I advise you not to speak with managers because of retaliation. They listen to you and use everything you've said against you. Be aware.

Pros: - Competitive compensation - Work-life balance

Cons: - Engineering culture needs improvement. - No true work from home or remote work is possible.
