Pros: Tripadvisor provided some good benefits like 401k, free lunch, and a bar.

Cons: Not really any cons to mention.

Pros: You're surrounded by tons of really intelligent, hard-working coworkers. The culture is very focused on helping each other and working together, with no toxic competition. Great perks at the office: * Free lunch * Snacks * Beer * Games Good compensation and raises. A flat organizational structure (although sometimes this means that promotions are less frequent).

Cons: It takes a while to adopt new technology. It seems like we were often a couple of steps behind other companies in the industry. The 2020 COVID crisis hit Tripadvisor really hard. I was laid off because of it, and a lot of fringe benefits (like the free lunch) were cut (perhaps only temporarily, though) for the remaining employees. I do not blame Tripadvisor at all for that, and they handled it very well with good severance and outplacement help. However, it is something to keep in mind: as a business, they are very exposed to world events that harm travel.

Pros: The company still has a good legacy and inclusive culture. People you work with are very nice, and you don't have much pressure. Some working objects are super cool.

Cons: The new leadership team is a brutal machine. They brought a lot of political stuff into the company, and the whole atmosphere is changing top-down.
