Avantages

Food is not even that good to write as pro. Only pro is that Booking office is in Amsterdam. If you just want to sink your career while earning okayish money, Welcome to Booking.

Inconvénients

Bear with me for the long list with Real Examples as well. 1. They live on experiments for everything which is the reason for not much feature development and You will just end up changing if conditions or so just small things. 2. They have an obsession with Perl which is the dinosaur Language. If you think well how bad can it be. Just google it man!!!! 3. This Company used to be great and had developed some awesome systems but that is not the case anymore. Any company mind you, any company can easily take it down with aggressive marketing and tech development. 4. You come in and run and talk around like stupids to people and again interviewing and begging them to take into their teams. 5. They will ramble about open culture and in fact people prefer their own team members to be of their own country people or races. So much for open culture. 6. About helpful culture and all, Noooo you keep pinging people here and no one replies. Never ever in my past 5 companies I saw this much hostile environment. 7. Do yourself a favour and don't ruin your life by coming here... In the end they don't even pay that well to be able to bear all this nuisance atleast. So, run for your life -------------------------------------------------------------- Example: Apparently these guys have an onboarding program which they boast about but actually is a complete waste of time, skills and resources. The so called OnBoarding Leads will tell you that they will find you the team and some even dislike the fact of you going and talking to people for teams. But apparently after weeks, they will be like what!!! You didn't find the team. Should I worry???? So, you have to able to read people minds before landing up here. Don't forget to take a course in Psychology and talking gibberish in case you do come.

Avantages

After three months at Booking.com as an Account Manager, my experience has been very positive so far. The onboarding process is structured, and expectations are clearly set for new hires. The role is intellectually stimulating and offers strong exposure to the travel industry, commercial decision-making, and performance-driven work. I’ve felt supported by my peers and managers, with regular feedback, clear incentives, and encouragement to grow. The team environment is collaborative, and there is a genuine focus on learning, data-driven thinking, and ownership of your portfolio. For someone looking to build or accelerate a commercial career, it’s an exciting place to be.

Inconvénients

As a new hire, it’s clear that this is a fast-paced and demanding environment. The learning curve is steep, and there is a lot of information, tools, and processes to absorb in a short amount of time. Priorities can move quickly, which may feel overwhelming at first. Because I am still early in my journey, some longer-term aspects of the role — such as workload sustainability, career progression, and regional adaptability — are still unfolding. It’s a role that requires resilience, adaptability, and comfort with ambiguity, which may not suit everyone.
