Pros

I have been with Railbookers Group for the past 3 years and I could not imagine working for a better company. The biggest perk is that we are a fully remote company but we are required to turn on screens in our meetings. I actually love that since it forms bonds with our team even though we do not get to see each other too often. The next one is travel, we all get the amazing opportunity to sign up for one trip a year completely covered by the company. I have been to Austria/Germany with Railbookers, across the US on Amtrak, and leaving in a few months for the Canadian Rockies. Plus we get to attend a yearly Summit, this year we are going to Miami! My manager and the VP of Marketing are the best people and I have total respect for them. Everyone in the company is so warm and caring across all departments.

Cons

Because we are remote, there are strict rules for staying at home and always having 3 screens, while this is great that they provide all of this equipment, I would love a little flexibility to work in another location to give me a little change of scenery.

Pros

First and foremost, the people at RBG are what make it such a great place to work. The team is passionate, supportive, and genuinely enjoys what they do. Everyone works hard, but there's also a strong culture of having fun and celebrating successes together. RBG does an excellent job of fostering a collaborative, team-oriented environment. Even though we work remotely, which is another fantastic perk, there are plenty of opportunities to connect with colleagues through clubs like cooking, running, gaming, and more. These groups make it easy to build relationships with team members across the organization. And, of course, working in the travel industry is an exciting bonus. Being part of a company that helps create memorable travel experiences makes the work even more rewarding.

Cons

If fast-paced is not for you, RBG may not be your best fit.

Pros

Remote. Hourly + Commission. Health Benefits.

Cons

High performance metrics were not the primary factor in employment decisions. Leadership communication was inconsistent and lacked transparency. Policies prioritizing customer satisfaction leaves you feeling undervalued and used. Rapid operational changes occasionally impacted team stability. Goals and priorities were sometimes ambiguous and would change suddenly without explanation. Organizational changes created confusion and conflict to the work culture. Inconsistent enforcement of policies and standards. Constant increase to work load with no additional scheduled time to complete new assigned tasks. Management is mostly comprised of individuals who failed as successful Account Executives but got moved up to management. They impose unrealistic expectations that they themselves couldn't keep. You aren't just selling Rail Vacations you are teaching customers about how train travel works on the phone, this leads to very long phone calls and over time. Website pricing is misleading which leads to a lot of mad customers calling in taking it out of the people that answer the phones. Mandatory weekends, and monthly changes to schedule with only 2 weeks notice which leads to a bad work/life balance.
