      Pros

      I'd give it a 1 star if it wasn't for the wonderful people at TA - Genuinely nice folks who want to see the company succeed - Interesting projects - Pet friendly! Looks like at zoo at times (that's a good thing!)

      Cons

      - Culture of blame. Founders don't understand their role as leaders and just sits around blaming people instead of behaving as leaders - No systematic approach to problem solving, just incoherent priorities - I've seen people build an excellent department from the ground up only to have it taken away from them - Founders have a penchant for using the F-word - During 1 year at TA, I've yet to hear a ground shaking idea from the founders - Quick to blame others for leader's shortcomings then fires or demotes people - In 2018, there was a company wide contest to see who can write the best review on Glassdoor with "Trip Bucks" reward. Read these reviews cautiously.

      I completely agree with you about the wonderful people here, but I'm really sorry to hear about your experience and wish we had gotten a chance to talk about this while you were working here. I've taken your feedback on board and will make sure to be more thoughtful about these things moving forward, especially as we work to support our managers, giving them autonomy to grow and lead as we're scaling so fast. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.

      Pros

      Fast paced, plenty of room and opportunity to grow. Very good starting pay and ability to earn bonuses. Many remote work options. Strong culture and supportive leadership, with fun company events (like the Christmas party) that help people feel connected, even for the many remote employees.

      Cons

      The pre‑hire assessment is very strict and pass/fail. I’ve referred strong, experienced candidates who I know are good workers, but they did not pass the test and were not given the opportunity to move forward. It feels like the process may screen out some high‑potential talent who could otherwise thrive here.
