Pros

Good place for engineers who like to feel their impact on overall business. A lot of very experienced peers who know a lot about software engineering in general and everything about Perl. Unique way of engineering with focus on A/B testing and monitoring not artificial testing.

Cons

This is not tech company but travel agency. Don't expect cutting edge technology adopted often, expect a lot of legacy or crappy code. This doesn't of course mean that we don't do new and cool stuff, it's just you will have to deal with legacy things.
