Pros

After three months at Booking.com as an Account Manager, my experience has been very positive so far. The onboarding process is structured, and expectations are clearly set for new hires. The role is intellectually stimulating and offers strong exposure to the travel industry, commercial decision-making, and performance-driven work. I’ve felt supported by my peers and managers, with regular feedback, clear incentives, and encouragement to grow. The team environment is collaborative, and there is a genuine focus on learning, data-driven thinking, and ownership of your portfolio. For someone looking to build or accelerate a commercial career, it’s an exciting place to be.

Cons

As a new hire, it’s clear that this is a fast-paced and demanding environment. The learning curve is steep, and there is a lot of information, tools, and processes to absorb in a short amount of time. Priorities can move quickly, which may feel overwhelming at first. Because I am still early in my journey, some longer-term aspects of the role — such as workload sustainability, career progression, and regional adaptability — are still unfolding. It’s a role that requires resilience, adaptability, and comfort with ambiguity, which may not suit everyone.
