Pros
Food is not even that good to write as pro. Only pro is that Booking office is in Amsterdam. If you just want to sink your career while earning okayish money, Welcome to Booking.
Cons
Bear with me for the long list with Real Examples as well. 1. They live on experiments for everything which is the reason for not much feature development and You will just end up changing if conditions or so just small things. 2. They have an obsession with Perl which is the dinosaur Language. If you think well how bad can it be. Just google it man!!!! 3. This Company used to be great and had developed some awesome systems but that is not the case anymore. Any company mind you, any company can easily take it down with aggressive marketing and tech development. 4. You come in and run and talk around like stupids to people and again interviewing and begging them to take into their teams. 5. They will ramble about open culture and in fact people prefer their own team members to be of their own country people or races. So much for open culture. 6. About helpful culture and all, Noooo you keep pinging people here and no one replies. Never ever in my past 5 companies I saw this much hostile environment. 7. Do yourself a favour and don't ruin your life by coming here... In the end they don't even pay that well to be able to bear all this nuisance atleast. So, run for your life -------------------------------------------------------------- Example: Apparently these guys have an onboarding program which they boast about but actually is a complete waste of time, skills and resources. The so called OnBoarding Leads will tell you that they will find you the team and some even dislike the fact of you going and talking to people for teams. But apparently after weeks, they will be like what!!! You didn't find the team. Should I worry???? So, you have to able to read people minds before landing up here. Don't forget to take a course in Psychology and talking gibberish in case you do come.
