Pros
Overall, a really talented, knowledgeable, friendly group of people to have worked with. It was a company with a fun area to work on (food and restaurants). Compensation relatively competitive.
Cons
The company has been growing but hasn't staffed managers that are handling it well. The current management in place isn't trusting employees, which is tragic because there are a lot of talented folks here. Instead of delegating, management is being more hell-bent on instituting rigid processes that everyone needs to fall into line with versus actually managing the people, knowledge, and skillsets they have working under them. Classic case of a medium-sized company bloating itself into an inhumane corporation. Process has become more important than results, which puts OpenTable in an odd position because there's definitely a sense that the Priceline Group (which bought OpenTable) has become increasingly frustrated that their recent acquisition isn't producing results fast enough.
