Pros

Better paying than independently owned travel agencies. Benefits are great. Lots of internal job postings.

Cons

DT essentially buys up littler agencies to add to its size & decides them among existing regions. You are then on boarded into their technology slowly over a year or two period. However, they leave the newly acquired agency some wiggle room to manage locally as they did before. You kind of lose the small company touch in all the bureaucracy, but you’re often left with the same managers you had previously which isn’t always great. Also upper management likes to party with lots of booze at their meetings while most employees can’t even get a Christmas bonus.

Direct Travel Response

Thank you for your 10+ years of service! We place a high value on our talent which is why we invest in the various benefits, training and employee recognition programs. As we continue to grow, we will continue to integrate and align processes as fast as we can.
