Pros

- Financial stability and prospects are good due to CEO Sean Menke's better investment bets. Org changes better align functions and make it easier to get things done. - Nice campus in Southlake TX - Benefits are pretty good, better vacation policy than most - Cool technology, interesting problems to solve, smart people - As a developer, nice to work at a place where the product is the software you make - Fairly liberal work-from-home policies (depending on manager)

Cons

Not fun to work here. Hard to advance. CEO Sean Menke and his leaders get business and technology strategy right but people all wrong. The sum of their EQs must be close to zero fostering a workplace where few feel safe or valued. People tend to look out for themselves. Because of this employee engagement is low, and good people are eagerly looking for opportunities outside of Sabre.

Mgmt worried about their own jobs and will use lower levels to scapegoat to keep theirs. Lack of forward vision and trying to stay relevant in marketplace by chasing latest trends in name only.
