Pros
I work in one of KAYAK's APAC office - Global company with a startup culture - Most colleagues are easy going and very willing to share ideas and teach - New things to learn every day about travel and tech - Management style is quite flat, lots of lateral mobility (roles, responsibilities, locations) - Encourage work-life balance - Teams are quite international - Able to work with colleagues from various global offices - Free snacks and drinks at the office - A good amount of holidays and allows working from home on occassions - Generous tuition allowance so you can sign up for courses - Reasonable pay
Cons
There is not many cons but a few things to keep in mind - Since the work culture is quite flexible, you have to be self-discipline to make sure you get things done - While having good lateral mobility, upward mobility and its requirement can be unclear at times - There could be resources constraints at certain teams and things might not move as fast as you wish - You have to take ownership and be self-driven to make things happen and be bold to raise ideas backed with data, in other words, you cannot wait for others to tell you what to do - Since we work with international colleagues on a daily basis, you likely need good English to communicate
