Pros

I love the fact that no two days (or two years) are the same. I have really enjoyed the variety of career options i have had. And love the fact that i work with such great people (smart, hard working, non-political) at a company that is at the intersection of two great areas...Internet and travel. Chicago is an awesome city.

Cons

We operate in a very competitive sector with large and small competitors. This keeps us on our toes, which makes for an exciting enviorment.

Pros

Free soda and opportunity to work with different technology. There are some really good hardworking people that you can learn a lot from.

Cons

* Late notices because of unnecessary secrecy which just causes you to run around and stress even more. * A lot of stress. * Depending on the manager, end of year reviews are biased, lacking any concrete information, and clearly demonstrating favoritism to other employees. * End of year reviews tend to be popularity contests. * Forced bell curves where good hardworking employees have to be poorly rated. * Lack of work/life balance. Too many people are burned out. * Promotions are popularity contests as well.

Pros

~People are collaborative and smart ~Culture is laid back and respectful ~Mostly data-driven decision making ~Interesting technology

Cons

~Incoherent management across different business and technology groups; ~Poor career guidance, it is essentially non-existent; even when you raise your hand and ask; you will get more responsibility but don't think that means anything in terms of growth, new opportunity, or compensation ~Weak strategy (large generic goals to talk about the quarterly meetings but not much more)
