Pros
Working at Booking Holdings has been a genuinely rewarding experience. The flat hierarchy means you can actually reach senior leadership without jumping through hoops decisions get made fast and your voice is heard regardless of your title. The culture is inclusive and collaborative; people from diverse backgrounds work together and there's a real sense of belonging. You're given meaningful ownership over your work with the autonomy to drive things forward without being micromanaged. The colleagues here are sharp, motivated, and push you to be better. On top of that, the global scale of the business means the work you do impacts millions of travelers worldwide, which keeps things exciting. There's also no shortage of learning opportunities whether through cross-functional projects, internal mobility, or just being surrounded by people who know their craft deeply.
Cons
A lot of day-to-day processes are still surprisingly manual there's room to automate and modernize how work actually gets done
