Hopper reviews

Can go very fast sometimes but its not so bad

My biggest issue (and the reason that this is a 4-star review instead of 5) is how the company handled the COVID crisis. The layoffs are understandable due to the state of the travel industry, but just weeks before when people were buying a lot of flights in reaction to the dip in airline prices, there was an almost unanimous vibe of celebration in slack. When someone called out that we were essentially celebrating a global pandemic, people who are very high up in the company publicly shamed him which really rubbed me the wrong way. Additionally, when this was brought up to HR, nothing was really done about it. I feel like this really shed some light on the general mindset of a lot of the people working at Hopper. There is a true obsession with the success of the company - and while I don't think that it is necessarily a bad thing, it can definitely be pushed too far. Basically, it becomes an echo chamber where success is the goal at any cost, I think there are other considerations to be had.
