How are promotions handled at Intrepid Travel?
Pros
The Intrepid brand has good values and sustainable travel practices Their trips are fun You'll make friends Good office location Dogs
Cons
Intrepid constantly promotes being a B Corp, but they don't uphold the most basic B Corp values. If B Corp does audits, they should do one on Intrepid. Intrepid prioritizes internal promotions, which sounds great because you think you'll have a chance at a promotion after a year. But you'll learn that it's just their excuse to promote unqualified men they like into top positions, usually on the marketing teams. There is no transparency with pay structure or promotions. Some people will get 'Sr.' or 'Manager' slapped onto their title randomly throughout the year to buy their continued loyalty. Everyone else has to wait for annual reviews. It's a toxic work environment full of gossip. And that free trip they give you, hopefully you want to go to Central America because that's the only place you'll be able to afford flights to on your Intrepid salary.
Advice to Management
Get rid of the boys' club. Fire the the leadership who are having inappropriate relationships with women on their team. Live up to your values.
