Pros

- London office is really nice: lots of free snacks and drinks, nice collaborative space including a gaming room, walk up IT support desk, lovely large terrace with great views of London - Salary was above average - Generally, coworkers were good - Hybrid working (3 days in office)

Cons

I spent 10 months here in Marketing and it was a complete mess from start to finish. Leadership constantly had an itchy trigger finger and had a tendency to make very snap decisions (including possibly my hiring as once I joined it seemed like there wasn't a solid plan). It felt as though each week you didn't know what to expect. Your roles and responsibilities were constantly in limbo with constant reorgs and people pulling in different directions for their own motives. I was only there for 10 months, but never settled because of the constant change and never being able to properly get to grips with something before it was flipped. I was eventually made redundant along with my whole team after 10 months, which wasn't surprising given how unorganised everything was. I'm sure not every role and department is the same, but Marketing in London was a complete mess that I wouldn't wish on anyone.

Pros

Constant state of transformation is ripe environment for new hires and functional experts from big name tech companies

Cons

Pre-covid the culture was really special. Collaborative, engaging, people-centric, with a unifying mission to enable travel for the world. Since covid there has been a revolving door of executive leadership, and with each round, they throw out the current strategy to try something "new" without building from the current or past successes. Constant change, but no clear vision or strategy of what they are trying to change to. Lack of strategy and low risk tolerance leads to too many priorities with not enough investment to move the needle in anything. Quarterly layoffs, but executed quietly team by team so as not to make news. No psychological safety. Talent strategy since covid is to hire externally over internal promotions to gain "functional expertise" therefore difficult to grow your career. Siloed divisions not working towards common goal. Lacks operating model maturity needed for a company of this size likely do to revolving door of execs and priorities. A cash cow company with an identity crisis trying to be an AI innovator. Build vs buy mentality slows them down. Too many exec pet projects that aren't vetted with proper business cases.
