Beware

Pros

You get to work at one of the most recognized sites in the world with some really smart folks and pretty cool people.

Cons

Senior management is bad I mean really really bad. The culture is similar to high school so if you haven't been chosen to be a part of the clique then you have no shot at advancement regardless of performance. There is such a profane lack of strong leadership and extremely poor communication, which makes for an awful work environment. Now what you have are unproven leaders who lack the wherewithal to encourage, motivate and LEAD their teams. Morale is at an all time low, there is no proper HR. All of the best people are gone or leaving soon. Sad all around

Pros

While KAYAK has changed a lot over its existence, it has continued to remain a very rewarding place to work with a smart team, great work environment and interesting problems to work on. While it's part of Priceline Group, it remains independent.

Cons

With several offices now (Cambridge, Concord, Stamford, Berlin, Kaunas), it's harder now to know the whole team, which was once possible.
