People

Agoda’s culture offers me a perfect mix of opportunities where I can move fast yet experiment & measure as its values suggest. The People team gives me a chance to work on strategic projects that can help us constantly improve the efficiency of the existing process alongside managing my deliverables. At Agoda, I don’t work across walls or teams; instead, it’s across the globe that helps me view the problem statement through a diverse lens. With the bottom-up approach, every idea is worth experimenting with. At Agoda, I keep adding something to my knowledge directory every day. We are the best as we support bringing in the best talent from the world market, not only someone with a technical intellect but with a strong entrepreneurial attitude.

At Agoda, I am surrounded by people who work hard to make Agoda a place where everyone can be themselves. Navigating legal, insurance and health systems built for a gender binary is tough enough for a person, let alone a company. Agoda’s not perfect, but we’re always trying to do better. I’ll never forget reading through my first performance review and seeing how my manager made sure to use they/them when referring to me in third person. Pretty sure I even teared up. For me, it’s the small, daily actions of colleagues who care that make Agoda a place where I can be myself.

I love working with people at Agoda. The People team has extremely smart and curious people, that come from diverse backgrounds and make every day interesting. The company's focus on ownership will provide you the opportunity to work with several stakeholders at any given time, You will have the ability to contribute to strategic projects and make an impact on our business outcomes.

One of my favorite memories has been flying across the world to Atlanta, USA to represent Agoda in Reaching Out MBA (ROMBA), an organization that connects and inspires thousands of LGBT MBA professionals from around the world. Returning to the US to sponsor ROMBA and represent Agoda has been pivotal for me as it allowed me to reflect upon my own career progression as well as to remind me of how privileged I am to be at a company in Asia where I can continue to be my authentic self.
