The burnout is real

Pros

Most software engineer and lower level employees are pleasant and friendly.

Cons

Constant pressure from the top to deliver quickly and expectations have only gone up since working from home during the pandemic. Not a company with good future outlook right now.

Pros

Good commission scheme if you like media selling. I recommend to join Media Solutions if you have a choice.

Cons

Lack of vision and customer purpose. management doesn’t like being challenged in general so this job is if you’re looking for a role where you execute

A warning before you think applying

Pros

You'll have fun with some of your colleagues, no benefits during COVID.

Cons

I wanted to write a few thoughts as I see they are rehiring. These are facts for you reader to take into account before applying. - All senior leadership has been moved to sister brand OpenTable in the last 6 months. This is the prospect that you'll encounter, a brand which is in decline and whose puppeteers are shifting resources towards the brand that has a future. - People with no or very little experience has been entrusted in leadership roles. I anticipate it will not be inspiring, nor the roles will have a true impact. - The way they've treated people pre - during pandemic showed the little humility and respect they have for their employees. Random firings and reorgs, undeserved promotions or poor communication when some were left in leave during COVID. - Lastly, GOOGLE, deserves capital letters as it keeps eating their share of the pie yet they KAYAK has not innovated. My advice, think twice before you hit Apply
