Pros

Lunch Work/Life balance Colleagues from different backgrounds/ nationalities Used to be a company where you learned a lot

Cons

Retaliation from upper management Opinion driven not Data driven Bottom down organization where the employee has no saying in anything. Managers just dictate you what to do and you have to take the fall for their wrong decisions Managers present data from a scope that fits them and they get away with it with bonuses and perks Many of the managers don't even say hello to their lower level coworkers Low salary Finance is divided into silos where people just do one thing all day/ No opportunities to learn and grow (anymore at least) A company where what you say and who you know is more important than what you do A culture that is rotten to the core A day at the office that has become a constant game of Diplomacy

Thank you for sharing this feedback with us. We value being a supportive, welcoming environment that gives you opportunities to develop. We’re disappointed to hear you’ve had a poor experience with management. We want to make clear that retaliation from a manager is very much against our values. We urge you to discuss with your HR Business Partner as this is a serious issue and needs to be addressed immediately. If you’d rather, our 24-hour completely confidential Ethics & Compliance Helpline is happy to assist. We know how important it is to have managers that support, motivate and develop you professionally and want to ensure you’re getting that here. Many thanks, The People Team at Booking.com

Quite slow and boring

Pros

Fairly good compensation, although there is huge disparity in compensation within the same role. Quite autonomous for doing what you like and to take ownership of things.

Cons

Poor calibre of other product owners, lots of nepotism in promotions and bonuses.

Pros

Good to start for early 20’s girls. Or only if you are in Amsterdam.

Cons

APAC japan office with horrible directors. Nothing to trust from company words. You’ll be sacked anytime even though you’re doing great with any reason they will create. You need to keep any proof (screenshot) of approval as they will deny in the end if it’s not good for them without proof and history. They can change contract without your agreement.
