Many Opportunities, Many Challenges
Awesome, well-loved product. I love to tell people where I work. Smart co-workers. Lots of opportunity. Fun technical challenges.
OpenTable is in a somewhat tricky spot. It owns its space, but it also needs to grow into new areas. The focus has been too much on growth at the expense of the core business. Some teams have too few concrete deliverables, and others have far too many.
You're not a startup. You have 16 years of carefully built-up customer loyalty. Don't take it for granted. Focus on execution. It seems like that is being addressed, although I'm not thrilled with some of the folks we lost in the process.
