Good Place to Work - Senior Software Engineer Skyscanner Employee Review

Great culture. You truly get the sense that people care for one another and want the full team to succeed, not just individuals. High exposure to commercial strategy early on Even in junior roles, you’re not just pushing buttons, you're helping to solve complex challenges. That’s rare and valuable. Cross-functional visibility. You get a front-row seat to how product, commercial, and marketing intersect, especially in Ads. Good place to understand how a travel marketplace actually operates. Ownership culture (if you lean into it). If you’re proactive, you can carve out scope quickly. Global exposure. Working across regions (Americas, EMEA, APAC) gives a broader view of how airlines and OTAs operate differently, which is useful for long-term career growth.

All the flexibility and benefits above come with the con of being a bit too flexible at times, leading to gaps in effective tooling and resource to tackle things in a timely manner. However, this is mitigated by the collaborative culture.

Great office environment Very welcoming team and inclusive atmosphere Excellent facilities Enjoyable social events and strong perks (travel, health, insurance)

Limited office space Challenges working across multiple time zones
