Pros

Great company name to work for as most people are familiar with OpenTable in some capacity. Very cool office with plenty of snacks and drinks. A lot of in-office activities going on. Chill work environment.

Cons

Unprofessional management. Cliquey work atmosphere. No clear direction from upper level management. Iffy career trajectory. Limited career growth training.

Pros

From the first day at OT London until my last day I never had a bad day working there. Amazing team, amazing offices, amazing training. If you have a problem you get help, if you have a suggestion you are heard. I can only recommend it. Highlights: - team events - proper training - great teamwork - cool office - benefits

Cons

- no dogs allowed - no work from home prior to covid

Pros

Awesome coworkers(supervisors/agents), health insurance(ish), free snacks, pool table, valuable knowledge from tier 2 agents.

Cons

The pay is far lower than what it should be, the term "customer support representative" was an inaccurate title of what the job really is, senior management is cliquey (including HR), email agents get paid the same amount as phone agents (now THOSE are customer support representatives), a lot of promises not fully kept, high turnover rate which makes things increasingly difficult when this company hasn't even got its feet on the ground for in-house support, and the trainer is not familiar with technical processes (just learned training classes are taught incorrect troubleshooting steps for one of the connection issues).

Thank you for taking the time to provide us feedback regarding your experience on the Customer Support team. We've recently made organizational and leadership changes by more tightly aligning customer support and sales. I believe this will enable us to manage the entire customer life cycle in a way that wasn't possible before. Please reach out to your HRBP with any questions!

Manager needs training

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Free snacks and pretty good benefit

Cons

The management needs to train some of the managers to treat the workers as human beings and to have some compassion, especially in difficult times like these. You don't have to show yourself as a boss to be a good manager.

Pros

-decent benefits -laid back environment ( use profanity a lot) -great for someone who has restaurant experience using the IPAD

Cons

-crazy hours, you either work 8 or 10 hour or varied shifts for 6 months straight -training was horrible ( the style of training is outdated) -3% raise after 1 year -company operates on mountain time. The time difference is difficult to adapt to especially if your working 10 hours shifts.
