Good Learning Curve - lowest salary you can get on the market

Anonymous employee

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Great learning curve for young people as Booking hires what it says to be young potential... Nevertheless the work environment is a bit chaotic and you are constantly repeated you should take more in order to exceed beyond your position you end up with endless of projects, long working hours, bring work home, in weekends, etc.

Cons

Definitely management - they just circulate the same people in different departments and do not give opportunities to new comers. If you are not from their small group. Extremely political. Same is valid for salaries and bonuses.
