Like the product but not a good workplace - Avis employé Travel Specialist Rippling

Cons: • Inadequate and unstructured training program • Management demonstrates unprofessional behavior • Toxic work environment • Non-standard business travel practices • Dismissive attitude toward industry experience and education • Poor onboarding process Review: I joined Rippling Travel with 10 years of industry experience and formal education in Event, Convention, and Tourism Management. My experience was unfortunately very disappointing and short-lived. The training program was severely lacking and did not align with industry standards. Despite my extensive background, I was only included in 4-5 meetings total before termination. During the very first meeting, my direct supervisor made negative assumptions about my potential performance before I had any opportunity to demonstrate my capabilities. The workplace culture was concerning. My attempts to provide feedback on industry-standard practices were met with hostility. Questions asked during training were viewed negatively rather than as engagement in the learning process. Colleagues were dismissive of formal education in the field, creating an uncomfortable work environment. Management was casual to the point of unprofessionalism. Despite having limited interaction opportunities, I was criticized for "not engaging with peers" while simultaneously being dismissed when attempting to contribute to professional discussions. The company's business travel practices deviated significantly from industry standards, and any attempt to provide constructive feedback based on experience was unwelcome.
