They pay you in a timely manner
Cons
The pay is little with very small raise opportunity , the turnover is very high because they don't listen to their employees, stats are everything ... nothing else matters to them. sell sell sell or be fired.
Advice to Management
Talk to your employees. Monitor them. If they are failing , 9 times out of 10 it is your fault as it is not a hard job.

I worked at The Travel Corporation full-time
Pros
Some of the people there are, personally, very nice.
Cons
I was told while I was there a lot of people don't work out. They will hire you for a short time, give you really confusing training with no clear goals or expectations and then cut you saying you don't make it. It happened to me, and I was told by a supervisor when I was there that, "a lot of people don't work out". Also, what others have said about the favoritism is true. If you're not part of the clique in your department, you may not get to keep your job.
Advice to Management
Give clear expectations from the start about what you want. Get a handle on the favoritism.
I worked at The Travel Corporation full-time (More than 5 years)

Cons
-management can get stuck in their ways while owners want to be cutting edge
-not a huge area for growth- more lateral moves
Advice to Management
embrace new talent, new ideas and new technology

Pros
Free coffee and espresso, easy work.
Cons
Way too much favoritism. There is a family that dominates the department and if they don't like you, they will try to sabotage you. You can get written up for something you didn't do if it's their word against yours. It's a toxic work environment. I enjoyed my job before they were the majority in the department. Things were more fair then.
Advice to Management
Do away with the nepotism.

Thank you very much for taking the time to write a review. We really appreciate the feedback. Totally agree regarding parking and when we move to our amazing new USA headquarters in early 2019, located in Cypress CA, there will be ample parking for all. The new office also brings lots of collaboration spaces and breakout areas. Employees will be able to relax in the huge lunch room with TV’s and games. We will also have a yoga room, BBQ/fit pit and bikes and scooters for our teams to use when relaxing! Analiesa Chapman, Sr. VP People & Culture... MoreLess
