So happy to hear you're enjoying the dynamic culture and the career possibilities here! It's team members like you who drive continuous improvement and innovation. While we also wish the Pernes office had a walkable café, we always appreciate the access to world class biking! Thank you for your commitment to making our workplace great.

Pros
I find that its a great workplace where folks are encouraged to speak up, take initiative, and problem solve together. I think it reflects well that there are many tenured people at the company.
Cons
There are many systems that do not always seamlessly work together so it can take extra effort to find the resources that exist & high cost of living in Bay Area can be challenging to keep up with.
The product (luxury active vacations) is phenomenal. It's great to be able to have confidence in what we're selling and know we are leading the industry in quality. Coworkers are great - hard working and fun. They also do a good job with benefits, especially trip credits and retirement plans.
Cons
Bay Area cost of living is quite high and while the sales role isn't a tech sales job, increased compensation would go a long way considering working remotely (full time) is essentially not an option.
