7 Perks of Working at TripAdvisor, One of the Most Influential Travel Companies

Imagine working for a company that offers you ample professional development opportunities, provides free food and exercise classes to keep you happy and healthy, and helps its employees travel to some of the most striking places on the planet. Good news: Such a company exists, and its name is TripAdvisor.

Below are 7 incredible perks that influential travel company TripAdvisor offers to its 3,000 employees across 45 worldwide locations, keeping team members excited, healthy, and challenged. (And if you want to get in on these benefits, you’re in luck, because TripAdvisor is hiring!)

1. Tuition Reimbursement

TripAdvisor supports its employees’ professional growth and development opportunities. The company offers free online learning and development courses, like language classes, and offers tuition reimbursement for up to $5,000 per year for approved programs.

2. Dog-Friendly Headquarters

Love dogs? So does the TripAdvisor team. You won’t have to leave your furry friend at home to come to the office.

3. Personal Travel Discounts

Given that TripAdvisor helps users with all things travel-related, it makes sense that its employees get to take full advantage of TripAdvisor’s personal travel discount. Unsurprisingly, team members have taken some very cool trips to explore the globe.

4. Summer Fridays

Break out the sunscreen: TripAdvisor offers Summer Friday options to employees, allowing them to take a little extra time off in July and August to enjoy the warm summer months.

5. Game Room

The game room, which features activities like a ping-pong and double-shot basketball, allows employees to get away from their desks and de-stress. Co-workers love the bonding experience, and rumor has it that mini ping-pong tournaments spring up from time to time.

6. Fitness Center With Free Classes

TripAdvisor HQ features a fitness center that offers free, on-demand, and live fitness classes in almost any type of exercise you love. Currently on the schedule are pilates, yoga, barre, zumba, spin, bootcamp, and meditation classes.

7. Free Lunch, Snacks and Drinks

The TripAdvisor team enjoys free lunches every day (recent spreads have included everything from sushi to Mexican food), and the office is flowing with coffee, tea, and snacks.

Like what you see? TripAdvisor is hiring full-time entry-level software engineers right now, and more listings will be on WayUp in the coming months. If you want to get in on the travel, exercise classes, and free lunch, you’ll have to act quickly.
