Current Employee – been working at priceline.com full-time for more than a year
Pros – Priceline.com is indeed a leader in online travel industry which is an attractive proposition. The work hours are reasonable and the work load isn't too bad.
Cons – Outdated technologies make the job more difficult than it really should be. Teams are generally understaffed so everyone is juggling multiple projects at once which burns people out after a while. Too much production support work leaving a little time for actual development.
No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm optimistic about the outlook for this company

Former Employee – worked at priceline.com full-time for more than 3 years
Pros – Very lax'd work environment in regards to start time. Most managers are incompetent since they get promoted from within with very little or no management training.
Cons – Management unable to properly gauge good from bad technical talent. The environment tends to be status qua in regards to technology. No longer has the feel of an eCommerce site, but feels more like an insurance or banking institution. Company is very frugal with buying decisions and picks price over quality with regards to buying decisions.
Advice to Senior Management – Do away with new management layers and go back to a flat model. The new reorg has bloated the company with regards to executive decision red tape. To much middle management introduced in regards to employee management ratio. This leads to slow decision making process as well as delivery times associated with project delivery times.

Current Employee – been working at priceline.com
Pros – high growth company
great industry, market - internet, travel
Cons – culture of have's and have not's - senior mgt team takes very good care of themselves and vp level and above
Advice to Senior Management – minimize the bold demarcation line between vp level and above and the rest... more of a team atmosphere vs. a top down culture
