Pros

Well known and well respected company. Looks good on your resume. Flexible work schedule. Large dot-com....some of the problems of scale we deal with are pretty interesting. Company is doing great. stock price is thru the roof.

Cons

Have to deal with office politics - shocking for me compared to my previous company. Hard to get promoted. Senior roles are usually filled by outsiders. Old code base - hard to deal with; Its beginning to show on the live site. Use older technology. Expedia is definitely not on the cutting edge when it comes to technology. Many of the things we do here are using older/outdated software. It is very frustrating that I spend a lot of my time doing mundane things because of lack of right tools and technologies. Funnily the same feeling is shared by someone else in a different division within Expedia. The pay is strictly ok, not great. Cramped office. Too many people are crammed into the HQ building. Old offices near eastgate were much better.

Pros

Incredible benefits! Quality, affordable medical insurance, 401k, wellness reimbursement, travel reimbursement, plenty of PTO, etc. They have fresh food cooked daily for breakfast and lunch, available for purchase. They also have free food, such as yogurt cups, cheese sticks, and shelf-stable fruits available to all employees. The benefits keep many of us here. I will say, have had two supervisors so far, and they’ve each been great. Very understanding, yet motivating. I haven’t yet met a supervisor who didn’t value their supervisees.

Cons

The main digital platforms we use do not function efficiently, which makes a noticeable impact on our work. On a perfect day, you’ll still spend 8-12 minutes per hour waiting on load screens, but we have experienced days in which the sites were down for about 6 hours within an 8 hour day. I feel that our quarterly goals are not constructed with this in mind. Another major con is—like many places now—job security is an issue. AI is taking over the job of many employees, and while we’re told to embrace it, it’s difficult to do so when you could walk in any day and be told to pack your things.
