Pros

Genuinely the best teammates that I have ever worked with. We all had each others back, especially when management did not. At its peak, this company's culture was one where I loved going into work and selling this product.

Cons

Culture deteriorated once new C-Level management was brought in. The way our former CRO was suddenly demoted after years of injecting confidence in sales reps and WINNING should have been a red flag for where the company eventually is now - 350 people laid off. Just last summer the company opened an office which grew to 20+ employees. Now? Poof. Gone. The core values, including transparency, were preached weekly at All Hands Meetings. The layoffs were announced in the least transparent way possible, and my gut tells me that this was not the end of it. Even at SKO, our new CRO swerved around how commission would be re-structured. One last thing for anybody thinking of joining the sales team here. Ask how commission is paid out. If it does not immediately make sense, then that should be a red flag (as many people have written in reviews). You won't make money here. Go somewhere else that will value and maximize your talent.

Pros

Higher starting pay than most entry level call center jobs Daily catered lunch Unlimited snacks $2000 yearly travel stipend $250 yearly fitness stipend Generous referral bonus Nice coworkers

Cons

Management: I am not sure where TripActions got some of their support managers, but it’s definitely apparent that most of them do not have call center management experience and some not even management experience . Their feedback/coaching is lackluster and sometimes inexistent. They are quick to point out your wrongdoings. Praises for your achievements are rare and can come off as fake. There is more negativity vibes than positive. Some managers do not know how to tailor their personality to each agent. They are known to micromanage. Work Tools/Resources/TripActions Platform: Beside management, I believe the resources, or lack thereof, has to be the most stressful part of the job. Sometimes it seems like we are set up to fail. Efficiency is not even a thing. “File a product feedback ticket” is something you will hear multiple times a day. Most of our job depends on other agents(Tier 2), which can lead to wrong information and/or super high handle time for your chat/call. Work From Home Rant: All Tier 1 support agents are supplied a company laptop and headset. Our job can be done purely remote with the company chat platform, Slack. However, only agents that have an end shift time after 10pm can work from home. Car won’t start? Sorry, you can’t work from home. Call in sick. Have a sick child at home? Sorry, you can’t work from home. Call in sick. However, when the business is desperate for agents and overtime is available, you best believe they will let you work from home. All because it is benefiting them. Raises/Promotions: Let’s first get this out of the way, raises aren’t a thing. Promotions seem to be highly based on favoritism and not on skillset, hence why there are leads and managers that do not know how to lead and manage. Final thought: With the amount of stress from management and the lack of resources to do you job to your best ability, I would not recommend anyone working for TripActions support.

Pros

- Best-in-class product - Free lunch - Good insurance

Cons

- CEO is destroying the company from the inside out - No care for employee wellbeing. Top performers leaving all the time due to environment. Attrition well above industry standard. - No chance its still a $9.2B company anymore - Constant turnover in executive team. Cannot retain or attract the talent needed to make company profitable or IPO ready. - Too many checked out, disengaged employees making collaboration and productivity very difficult. - Non-inclusive workplace. Very little diversity on leadership team.
