Pros

I've worked at some of the biggest tech companies in the North West of England and for me Rentalcars is up there with the best of them. Fantastic place to work both from a cultural and happiness perspective and from a work/career perspective. The ambition of Rentalcars through growth knows no bounds. I'm currently working in one of the ventures inside Rentalcars.com and so far it's been a whirlwind of an experience. You're given an opportunity to grow yourself and contribute to the business in a big way from recruitment to working on any of the platform you should wish. Work hard and bring big benefits to this business and you'll receive your just desserts.

Cons

None I can think of right now.

Pros

Food, juices, nice toilets, nice office, some nice people. I can't think of anything else nice to put here, just filling in for the 20 word minimum requirement.

Cons

Hotel Ninjas was acquired by B.com and after 7 months the company was shutdown, mainly because they bought Buuteeq, an US company, that had a similar product. It has a lot to do with politics also. The Hotel Ninja team was the best team of people I have ever worked with, they could of built any product with very high standards. But B.com instead of reusing the team they fired them, only to hire some of them back afterwards. B.com sells itself as a startup spirit company, but in practice it is not. It is a massive company that is only driven by profits and bulling. From a technical point of view the technology is not appealing, the core of the system is written in Perl and MySQL for persistence. The code base is massive, and the only way they can keep it going is by hiring gurus from the Perl and MySQL communities. I was not impressed by what I saw and by how we were treated.
