Our Employee Resource Groups
Driven by our employees with the support of the Booking.com IDBW team, our Employee Resource Groups (ERGs) are a driving force in creating the most open, welcoming and empowering work environment possible. Backed by members and allies, our ERGs not only foster inclusion, but drive our business goals and product evolution as well.
Mentoring for Women
We pride ourselves on our diverse and inclusive culture and see the value in championing women as they face barriers to their career progression. B.Champion is our learning and development program for women who want to prepare for the next step in their career. During the six-month program, participants are grouped together in a supportive community cohort, are paired with a senior-level mentor from Booking.com and follow a structured personal development program. Meanwhile, the Booking Holdings Women in Leadership Program develops rising women leaders in the organization; equipping them with tools to elevate their leadership skills and strengthen their network across our family of brands.

From surviving to thriving
- our Hybrid Way of Working Pilot
At Booking.com, we believe in experimentation and collaborative problem solving. Finding the best ways of working for our own people is no exception.
There is no one-size-fits-all approach for how teams and individuals work and collaborate. And when it comes to where our team members work in order to be productive and effective (from the office or at home), we trust that they know best.

We have decided that instead of specifying what percentage of their time they need to spend in the office each week, we are partnering with an external expert team at NeuroPower to run a hybrid work pilot and are dedicating the year 2022 to learning together as an organization.
