Pros

Management empowers agents, giving flexibility to completely resolve callers' issues. Fully stocked refridgerator/snacks and meals provided fairly often Opportunities provided for those who earn it. Incredibly knowledgeable staff, with patience to match it for agents who may have needed some more experience troubleshooting before working for OpenTable.

Cons

Salary is low for responsibilities given. Insurance feels lackluster for a company with this much clout. The same can be said about additional perks, they tout the "start up experience" in job postings, but the only "start up"-like perk I noticed was the free snacks and flexibility.

Pros

This is the best work/life balance I've ever had. The culture is fantastic, though geared more towards extroverted millennial types. The work itself is not boring and makes you use your brain. I love everyone I work with. Very little office drama (easy to stay out of some of the whispers of drama). Direct supervisors do not act above you and are always happily available. Generous PTO, constant lunch catering, good insurance, EcoPass, monthly team budget.

Cons

The pay. We get paid for customer support when in reality there is a large amount of troubleshooting/tech support. New feelings of being micro-managed are felt across all teams on the floor. We were promised things in training that all employees agreed were promised that now HR and upper management claim were never said. Upper management feels generally unapproachable, clique-y and judgmental. These are common opinions of myself and the workers we have left. We lost about 15 people in a little over a month out of an already small, understaffed support team. And we have at least 15 more actively looking for new employment.

Pros

Great place to work full of smart people that care about you as a person. As a recent college grad I was surprised with how much my opinion mattered in design decisions and this made me love my job even more.

Cons

Career path isn't as clear as it could be.

I'm happy to hear you are having a great experience thus far! We do value that this is a place where many managers do personally care about their employees and I'm glad to see you can feel that. I encourage you to talk with your manager for guidance on your career path with us.
