Hotel Engine Employee Reviews

Oct 11, 2024

If you're looking for a place to grow and build your skills Hotel Engine is the place!. I've been here for a while, and it's been a great experience. The culture is highly supportive, and almost everyone is very cool.

HE has built an innovative and game-changing product. We have an exceptional team from the leadership to engineering and every level in-between. The skills and dedication of my colleagues make each work day a pleasure.

Love it at Engine, great job. No real cons, it is considered a startup company so constant changes but they are usually positive

Product is free and companies seem to like using Engine rather than another travel tool.

Hotel Engine was a high-pressure, micromanaged environment with a revolving door of employees and constant gaslighting. If you've ever worked in a good workplace, this will feel like hell.

Need to increase diversity and stop moving the bar. Promotions aren’t fair and expectations aren’t clear. Rebrand set reps up for failure.

Good role for someone new without experience but way too many meetings and way too much micromanagement. Most new hires last less than a year.

Great product and fit, but burn and churn shop with little influence of external customer spend that directly affects quota.

Avoid this place like the plague! Constantly changing KPIs, quota & comp plan. They find reasons not to pay commission and fire employees before stock options vest. Horrific, cringey culture and favoritism from ELT make it all the more unbearable. Total waste of time & energy "selling" a free product with exorbitant customer churn.

Earning potentials have been greatly cut. Quotas continue to increase with less resources. No SDR support or inbound leads. 100% self sourced. KPI’s are unattainable.

Stay far away. Mangers and leaders are toxic, you have to hit at least 80% of monthly quota in order to get a dime of commission. Horrible company. All lies.

Hated every moment here. Nothing really innovative about their solution- just thousands of cold calls for mediocre pay. Boring, uninteresting. I’ve never rooted against a company like I’ve rooted against Hotel Engine. I’ve been lucky enough to enjoy all of my jobs, this was a huge mistake, don’t be like me.

Company treats employees like a revolving door. Toxic sales, bro work culture. Absolutely zero work life balance. Terrible training and development. Coworkers are amazing. Leadership and upper management are awful, minus a very small few. There is a lot more that can be said, but to sum it up - Do. Not. Work. Here. You will regret it.

"My overall experience was this is a good organization with a great product. The training and ramp period are very short and the outbound prospecting it time consuming, dupe checking every lead/account that you add.

Great company for fast transactional selling. But, if you don’t hit your number and you’re not tight with EL, expect a middle of the day Teams meeting unexpectedly to let you know your position has been eliminated.

Throughout my time here, it's been exhausting to say the least. The expectations in a market that is barely wanting to spend and inflation is affecting pricing is not realistic. I've had multiple colleagues quit from burn out and mental health reasons because of the pressures put on their employees and the lack of work life balances. It's not for everyone to say the...Read More

This is the feeding toon of a toxic work environment. Everyone loves I. Fear of termination. They are churning through VPs, CROs, CTOs, Marketing, managers, and reps. Everyone is over worked, over stressed, and unhealthily under-appreciated. The only redeeming aspect is that there are some decent and talented people who are unfortunate enough to work here with...Read More

Solid product. Awesome culture. Tough targets. Leadership is great, and the team is hungry as well. Only the strongest will enjoy their time here bc they make it. Most others cannot from what I experienced. You’ll progress at HE more than any other role you will entertain. That I can guarantee.

My overall experience was poor from the start. The organization micromanages its reps and treats all levels of sellers as new SDRs just learning to sell. There is no autonomy of style - you are expected to sell the Hotel Engine way to be considered successful, otherwise you will not be given the same praise and attention from leadership. The culture has no room for...Read More

I want to preface this is for the Supply Sales team working directly with our Hotel Partners. During the hiring process the managers over promised on earnings. I had expressed concerns about the base salary + ote being far lower than market average. Changes were made to comp for six months straight as our team was averaging 140% through the six months I was there....Read More
