Pros

1. You can learn as much as you want . You can get access to knowledge easily. 2. Cool parties 3.traveling around the world 4.it's super easy to meet your target, because the whole business is going up 5.nice lunch

Cons

1. Very poor management skill, especially the middle manager like team leaders , small managers. Booking is growing crazy fast , they can't make sure all middle manager are qualified. A lot of conflicts going on in Amsterdam. 2. A lot of lazy Dutch employees , they can get promoted easily . Because they smoke together with the Dutch managers. 3. Qualification of the employees is flat, not outstanding. Because booking was not the world class company. They have been hiring more and more clever people now. But in general , it's not as good as the other big company. 4. IT team sucks. Use perl, nobody understands what's going on anymore. No innovation mind set. I guess after a couple year working at booking as Dev, I guess you are not competitive anymore on market. Because you learn nothing from booking , if you are a Dev. 5.in general salary is not high at all.

Pros

Travel- I've traveled to countries I would've never thought I could ever visit. Personal Development- I was able to take control of my career and focus on my development along with the support of my manager. Training- I've had the opportunity to go to management training and cross- training in other offices. Culture- the people are awesome, we are encouraged to collaborate and share best practices amongst our team and with other offices. Other perks - free monthly lunch, yearly Annual meeting in Amsterdam.

Cons

Change is constant- if you're a creature of habit and routine, the constantly changing business can be frustrating. Fast paced environment- it can be difficult to keep up if you're not used to it. Keeps you on your toes.

Pros

met a few good friends while working there and there was always fresh fruit and coffee

Cons

basically everything else. my manager was very rude and not helpful so i complained several times which got me fired. i had good social relationships, great work efficiency and was never late or sick, however, after complainig about my direct manager, someone thought my mouth should be shut quickly.
