Pros

Vision, people and management = excellent. A very good brand to be associated with in the travel technology industry. Excellent benefits on top of the base pay. Almost everyone enjoys a healthy work life balance. Conducive environment for employees to bring about change / innovation / product improvements. Almost everyone can speak a good level of English.

Cons

Generally, slow career progression (there are exceptions of course). Base pay is not the most competitive (but work life balance is an upside - so a con depending on your life style / goals) Too many dependencies, slow to react (classic industry leader negatives) Definitely not a meritocratic environment (seniority rules)

Pros

- Learning opportunities, every day brought something new to tackle or explore - Decent benefits package that covered the essentials - Competitive salary relative to industry standards

Cons

- Management is aggressively enforcing a hybrid model, even for remote employees, and is rescinding previously agreed upon contracts. There's a glaring lack of strategic vision from leadership. - If you're based in Europe or North America, job security is virtually nonexistent unless you're in upper management. Roles are being shifted to India, Colombia, and the Philippines, with cost-cutting prioritized over talent, experience, or loyalty. - The forced migration to Azure, compounded by poor planning, is draining resources. And employees are paying the price — not just through increased workload, but by being let go in recent layoffs (October '25). With many of the positions eliminated quietly transferred to offshore. - Layoffs are being justified as “market alignment” and financial necessity. Yet at the same time, the company continues to absorb small to medium-sized companies, raising serious questions about transparency, priorities, and long-term stability.
