KAYAK grows quickly, company-wide communication and flat hierarchy is an ongoing challenge.

Pros

I had a great time interning with KAYAK over the summer. They treat their interns very well and it was a great opportunity to learn and develop new skills. The teams are quite small, and you work very closely with another employee, so there is plenty of opportunity to find a mentor. As a company, there was a lot of openness through the different teams and rungs of management, and everyone regardless of position was very approachable and friendly. The workplace environment is great - everybody works reasonable hours, tons of perks, etc.

Cons

None - it was a great experience

Pros

Great place to work. Definite room to grow within the company, fun work culture, good work/life balance, beer:30.

Cons

A lot of core engineers have been leaving the company because their previous stock options have vested.
