Pros

Free breakfast on Fridays Awesome co-workers New computer equipment provided 1st day of employment

Cons

Management is EXTREMELY disconnected from their team Internal promotions is at the bottom of management's list HomeAway Executive leaders must start listening to their customers. Sit in on a CS or T&S call a few times per week. The fraud on the website is uncontrollable and I feel for the customers. Multiple calls per day regarding phishing and fraudulent listings. Until there is a secure form of communication, HomeAway will continue to lose customers and their reputation will continue to suffer.

Pros

HomeAway technology stack has come a long way. One of the most appealing things about working here is the fact that you get to work with cutting edge technology. In addition, the engineering team are super smart, so working here is a great networking opportunity too.

Cons

Company is getting pretty big, and if you end up on the wrong team, you may find it that it is difficult for you to be impactful.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a thoughtful review. We love a good tech stack as much as the next tech company and it’s great to hear you enjoy working on ours. Our Data Science and Engineering teams are so important to the success of HomeAway. You’re right though, we are growing rapidly. If someone finds themselves on a team that doesn’t quite feel right, we highly encourage internal movement and having a conversation with your manager.
