Pros

If you're into climbing the corporate ladder and playing power games, you'll love it here. Good benefits package Lots of great travel tips and advice from other employees

Cons

There is a remarkable flurry of 5-star "great place to work" reviews from current employees over the past 2 months. Management is obviously soliciting good reviews. Expedia is having hiring problems because of the terrible reputation they've built. Expedia hires and promotes managers/executives with big egos and small skill sets. It's a highly politicized environment where brown-nosers rise to the top, and talent is systematically weeded out. If you love clawing and back-biting your way to the top, Expedia is the place. If you care about doing your best work and reaching your potential, welcome to h-ll. Mediocrity is fine as long as you're willing to sit in front of your computer pretending to work and stroke your bosses' egos daily. Enter at your own risk...

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.
