Pros

There are free snacks, fruits, tea/coffee and drinks. Lots of fun and company dinner to boost morale.

Pros

The culture here is very collaborative and mission driven. It feels like everyone is bought into the vision of the company, which makes it easy to come into work everyday and move the needle. This, to me, is evidenced by the tenure of much of the management and the quality of work that is done in many departments, especially product and engineering. Recently, the company has put a huge focus on culture and employee performance, which has been a breathe of fresh air to know that good work equates to career growth and rewards.

Cons

For a company that focuses on food and dining, some more perks to that end would feel more appropriate (but I guess not necessary). I would have more here but the company has been proactive about addressing issues and mine have been.

Pros

Playful environment, good people, a true sense of comradery, attractive and modern office space, nice kitchen and lounge area. Good benefits and PTO program. I feel more valued here than I have at any other call center I've worked at and certainly more at my last job. There is minimal push to hit prefixed stats, so it's quality before quantity, which is refreshing.

Cons

Grossly underpaid for the level of technical expertise and vast and varied system knowledge required. The "top down" management style creates more problems than it can solve. Departments do not seem to be educated on what the others departments do. Some departments have no appreciation for the people (ie, look down upon) on the front line at the call center. Certain programs are just broken and need a make over. Only a couple of supervisors have experience with OpenTable, thus leaving the rest unable to support and up-train their team adequately. Likewise, training is provided by a good guy, but who has minimal exposure and experience with the products. The opportunities to excel in new endeavors or roles seem shrouded at best.
