The best connections happen face-to-face, whether you’re sitting down to dinner or having coffee with a coworker. That’s why
OpenTable has adopted a hybrid workplace model. This role aligns with that approach, with an expectation of coming into the office
two days a week—giving employees the best of both worlds: in-person collaboration and flexibility.
We offer a competitive base salary and benefits including: health benefits; flexible spending account; retirement benefits; life
insurance; paid time off (including PTO, paid sick leave, medical leave, bereavement leave, floating holidays and paid holidays);
and parental leave benefits. This role is eligible to be considered for an annual bonus and equity grant.
Work Environment & Flexibility
At OpenTable, we pride ourselves on fostering a global and dynamic work environment. As a team member with us, you will benefit
from a schedule tailored to accommodate a global workforce operating across multiple time zones. While the majority of your
responsibilities may align with conventional business hours, there will be instances where you are expected to manage
communications - via calls, Slack messages, or emails - outside of regular working hours to effectively collaborate with
international colleagues, respond to restaurant partners, and/or address urgent matters. OpenTable will always abide by and
consider local laws and regulations.
Inclusion
We’re committed to creating a workplace where everyone feels they belong and can thrive. We know the best ideas come when we bring
different voices to the table, so we're building a team as dynamic as the diners and restaurants we serve—and fostering a culture
where everyone feels welcome to be themselves.
If you need accommodations during the application or interview process, or on the job, we’re here to support you. Please reach out
to your recruiter to request any accommodations.
