Pros

--The core product was already killer, and with TripActions Liquid launching, a very compelling sale when you can replace the entire travel, expense, payments stack with a single platform. (watch out legacy competitors) --Liquid sales team is built of high-caliber sellers who happen to be good humans, supporting each other to win together. --Company has been very aggressive and proactive in adapting to Covid. While jarring at times, prefer this to standing still --Sales org and broader company have figured out how to sell in Covid, and per-rep productivity is strong again.

Cons

--While Liquid team culture has been consistently strong, broader sales culture has had bumps in the road. To be fair, that is natural given the quickly changing market and with leadership changes early in the year. --Operating as a startup (Liquid) within a more mature company (TA) can mean not always being able to go 90 mph startup fast, but needing to work well across the aisle with the broader company.

Pros

Passionate, talented people maniacally focused on customers and their success; Strong culture of constantly raising the bar, challenging the status quo and leading industry innovation. During recent, very difficult times with business travel halted due to coronavirus, the company had to do layoffs--Even worse given the current WFH reality and the only way to have these conversations was via video conference. I was disappointed to see the layoffs, particularly of such talented colleagues, but proud that our leadership team is doing all it can to take care of those colleagues - making the changes effective the first day of April so they would have health benefits for the entire month; offering two months of company-paid health insurance beyond that plus a minimum of 3 weeks severance; redirecting the remaining recruiting team to focus on helping impacted employees find jobs, update their resumes and LinkedIn profiles, and sharing their contact info with our VCs' portfolio companies to help them find jobs. True character comes through in the bad times, not the good times. While i hated to see that we had to do layoffs, I'm proud of how the company is doing it's best to take care of these employees while ensuring we are here for our customers.

Cons

If you aren't accustomed to an incredibly fast pace, this is not the place for you. We move faster than anywhere I've ever seen or been. The work ethic of employees matching their passion. You cannot skate by inside this company. Everyone is here with purpose.
