Pros

The benefits are really fair.

Cons

You can never get a straight answer from Management or HR. You will only get promoted if you are well liked by your management team regardless of performance or competence of the job. TOO MUCH GOSSIP and backstabbing. Hate to say it , but I personally think there are too many women in management there to be able to get a grip on the GOSSIP. In my experiences I found that management (including HR) are the main ones that are generating rumors and keep tension in the different departments instead of trying to get teams to work together. The compensation is minimal. One year I got my review and could only get one mark higher than I received and got a .36 cents raise!!!! Way to pay Expedia....remember you get what you pay for, and the employess show that on a daily basis. Also most of their support sevices are outsourced to different companies..... SUPPORT AMERICA THAT SUPPORTS YOUR REVENUE!!!!

Pros

Constant state of transformation is ripe environment for new hires and functional experts from big name tech companies

Cons

Pre-covid the culture was really special. Collaborative, engaging, people-centric, with a unifying mission to enable travel for the world. Since covid there has been a revolving door of executive leadership, and with each round, they throw out the current strategy to try something "new" without building from the current or past successes. Constant change, but no clear vision or strategy of what they are trying to change to. Lack of strategy and low risk tolerance leads to too many priorities with not enough investment to move the needle in anything. Quarterly layoffs, but executed quietly team by team so as not to make news. No psychological safety. Talent strategy since covid is to hire externally over internal promotions to gain "functional expertise" therefore difficult to grow your career. Siloed divisions not working towards common goal. Lacks operating model maturity needed for a company of this size likely do to revolving door of execs and priorities. A cash cow company with an identity crisis trying to be an AI innovator. Build vs buy mentality slows them down. Too many exec pet projects that aren't vetted with proper business cases.
