Pros

Company is doing OK financially, so if you have options there is something to feel good about Decent travel benefits Some pockets within the company really want to do the right thing and kick butt in the market.

Cons

Run by a banker, not a technology or product visionary High turnover at every level including executive management Big company politics Too much variability from one team to the next. Some leaders are well liked and respected while others are mocked by their most senior lieutenants. Too much focus on infighting and kingdoms. A lot of MS culture still remains.

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.
