Pros

Web 2.0 in Boston, beats Monster.com and other local opportunities. Decent work/life balance for employees with children. Well known web site with a good reputation within travel and Internet industries. Pays above market rates. Growing with opportunities for lateral movement.

Cons

"What have you done for me lately?" - contributions are not valued, only expected (despite management rhetoric). Slightly out of touch with latest technology trends. On a day to day basis, little to do with travel industry - could be selling widgets and most employees are not passionate about travel per se. Crummy commute to Newton. Slower moving than expected (despite management rhetoric). Marketing/sales driven company. "Old" office culture, does not feel like a typical high energy Internet place to work.
