Pros

Product is amazing. Full stop you’re hard pressed to find a better product market fit and product as far ahead of the competitor set than at TripActions.

Cons

When will travel restart. Competition pricing confuses buyers. Program managers are usually very low level and risk adverse. Leadership seems unaware and/or not compassionate to market challenges. If you care about diversity the head of dei is just a friend of ceo and since his hiring all but one African American remains in the sales organization. He just promotes his personal brand but does nothing truly in the lane of dei.

Pros

Fast paced, plenty of room and opportunity to grow. Very good starting pay and ability to earn bonuses. Many remote work options. Strong culture and supportive leadership, with fun company events (like the Christmas party) that help people feel connected, even for the many remote employees.

Cons

The pre‑hire assessment is very strict and pass/fail. I’ve referred strong, experienced candidates who I know are good workers, but they did not pass the test and were not given the opportunity to move forward. It feels like the process may screen out some high‑potential talent who could otherwise thrive here.
