Pros

- Colleagues - Work Life Balance - Parental benefits

Cons

This company is becoming irrelevant at an alarming pace. Truth be told, Expedia was never at the forefront of tech innovation but you could expect a humble org staying relevant and treating its people well. Under the new CEO, the org is being sold for scraps. Vision is to turn Expedia into a nimble and agile org but the senior management is just incapable of delivering change. Most of the folks at Sr. Director/VP/SVP level have been around for donkeys years and moved up the org without any precedent of delivering impact. Those same leaders(?) are trying hard to reinvent themselves in this new org and they're using the same inefficient means (meetings, townhalls, Strategy sessions, State of the unions!???) without any execution! Airbnb, Booking and Trip are stealing share across markets and target segments and unfortunately, its only a matter of time when cost cutting measures will not deliver any incremental impact. The employees see it too. The engagement and morale are unbelievably low and expedia branded CVs are floating around the job scene. I wish I was wrong, but the asteroid is closing in and Expediasaurus will not survive :-(

Pros

• Nice office • Relaxed working hours • Low standards and expectations • Fantastic place to work if you have a family and want to spend time at home and/or want to get by with minimum input and effort

Cons

• No sense of meritocracy and a "we promote our own" culture • An organisation made by managers for managers • No appetite to actually do challenging work and tackle the industry's problems head on (hence why they're losing to competition) • People get applauded for bringing an idea forward, presenting it in 100s of meetings then stashing it on a shelf to never see the light of day again • If you want to be challenged, learn and progress from a technical perspective go work somewhere else • Pay is incredibly bad compared to other companies who they are competing for talent with • They think they are an innovative, tech company but in reality the organisation is being governed by a bunch of paper-pushers • Verbatim feedback from my manager: "You are moving & delivering incredibly fast, sometimes too fast I am afraid..."

Pros

Food, cab, perks and decent quality work and work life balance

Cons

HR department is the biggest problem with india office, they are completely spineless only talent they have is to flatter the top bosses of india office. Recruitment process is totally corrupt, they don't hire people on the basis of merit rather they take people with connections or those who can offer a good amount of money ( yes you read it right ) Recruiters in general are very arrogant they think of themselves as gods. Recently introduced open talent policy( internal employees are allowed to move to different teams ) is not being followed at all, recruiters will not even consider you, unless you lick their feet. To much growth is pushing expedia india to its own coffin, just like any other company which kinda settles down in india expedia is hiring low cost low quality people and it is being promoted by top bosses and the useless HR dept
