Pros: Great people, fantastic environment. Each single colleague is a fantastic person: he/she has both great skills and a fantastic attitude. You could not wish for better people to work with.

Cons: Not innovative: it is very difficult to introduce changes. The company is doing well and sees any change as a threat.

Pros: Smart engineers, challenging problems, and great benefits.

Cons: Upper management is a disaster and has been for years. The company changes course every six months, and every new idea is presented as THE IDEA that will fix everything. Though often, it's something only a few people at the top think is worth doing, and everyone on the ground knows will fail. There are highs and lows, but the company has been trending downward the last year or two. It's a shame because, at its core, TripAdvisor is a really great product and something that users love. Unfortunately, the company has spent far more time and money on failed marketing campaigns and redesigns than it has on improving its infrastructure in a way that actually benefits users.

Pros: Good work-life balance. No toxicity. Good projects. Good people.

Cons: Don't join on contract. Less pay than average. Very slow.
