About the company
Flash Pack is a boutique group travel booking platform focused on solo travellers in their 30s and 40s, with an emphasis on curated “arrive solo, leave as friends” style trips. Flash Pack was founded in 2014 by Radha Vyas and Lee Thompson, and positions the brand as a “friendship company” using travel as the catalyst. Public materials describe Flash Pack as remote-first, with periodic in-person team gatherings. Flash Pack has also publicly discussed rebuilding after COVID-era disruption and investing in systems like pay transparency and career frameworks.
Locations and presence
The company describes a remote-first team with hubs including London and New York City. Flash Pack sells trips globally and markets a large international traveller community across multiple countries.
Palpable Score
56.6
/ 100
Flash Pack has credible signals of junior hiring and a more structured people approach than many travel startups, including public pay-transparency and career-framework messaging. The limit is volume and freshness of evidence: the public careers board showed no live openings when checked, so scores lean on older job ads and third-party listings rather than a steady current flow.
Pillar 1: Early-career access

Score

11.5
/ 20
  • The company has advertised explicitly junior roles like “Junior Customer Experience Specialist” and “Junior Operations Manager” in public job postings.
  • Flash Pack has also shown early-career-friendly requirements in at least one listing (for example, a Marketing Executive role labelled 0–2 years experience).
  • The company’s own careers job board showed no active roles at the time of review, which weakens confidence in recurring entry-level access right now.

Pillar 2: Hiring fairness and transparency

Score

12.8
/ 20
  • The company uses a formal ATS-style application flow on the careers site (Teamtailor), which usually signals a consistent process rather than ad-hoc hiring.
  • Flash Pack has multiple candidate interview accounts describing staged interviews with timeline management and feedback, including senior stakeholder involvement.
  • The company also has interview feedback describing awkward or misaligned assessments (for example, code-reading tasks that candidates felt did not reflect real work), which pulls down fairness for some roles.

Pillar 3: Learning and support

Score

10.3
/ 20
  • The company describes remote-first working paired with at-least-quarterly in-person gatherings designed for bonding and collaboration, which can help new joiners build context faster.
  • Flash Pack has publicly written about training and people policies alongside pay transparency, suggesting some investment in internal development rather than “sink or swim.”
  • The company has limited role-by-role onboarding detail in the evidence available (for example, few junior job ads surfaced that spell out ramp plans, pairing, or coaching), so support looks uneven on paper.

Pillar 4: Pay fairness and stability

Score

14.0
/ 20
  • The company has published content about pay transparency and internal leveling, which is a meaningful fairness signal when juniors are trying to understand growth and pay bands.
  • Flash Pack has had at least one junior-to-mid listing with a visible salary range (for example, Customer Experience Specialist roles shown with a £26.1k–£32.8k range on a third-party board).
  • The company does not consistently show salary ranges across all roles in the evidence reviewed, which caps confidence in pay clarity for early-career applicants.

Pillar 5: Early-career outcomes

Score

8.0
/ 20
  • The company has a moderate volume of employee sentiment data publicly available (for example, dozens of reviews on Glassdoor with an overall mid-3s rating), but that is not specific to early-career progression.
  • Flash Pack has at least one detailed employee review referencing “career progression framework” and “regular reviews,” which is a concrete outcome mechanism, but it’s hard to verify how broadly that reaches juniors.
  • The company has limited public evidence of early-career retention and promotions over 12–24 months (LinkedIn-style alumni patterns and structured “junior to mid” trajectories are not clearly documented), which keeps this score conservative.
