Pros

Lots of free beverages and post it notes. With weak managment comes opportunity.

Cons

Will slowly suck the life out of you. All innovation has stopped since Dara and his team of consultants came in about 5 years ago. Dara, how has the Expedia experience improved for your customers? The business model is to simply milk this same idea by replicating it around the world until consumers figure out that Expedia charges fees that they can avoid by booking elsewhere. Overly bureaucratic and political.

Pros

There are lots of fun problem to solve. Whether it is in user experience or payment processing, there is a little bit of everything. There is lots of opportunity to improve the way the product is built and released as the current methods are manual or people intensive.

Cons

Pretty incompetent senior management, particularly at the VP level. No synergy between the different business units in technology, process, and how it affects the user of the product. There is no consideration of quality from the test organizations and this permeates into the other stages of building the products. IT is very disfunctional and not in line with the the activities that generate revenue for the company.

Pros

You are not just "another body" at Expedia--you are a somebody. Granted, there are exceptions within the company which may have a different group dynamic or personal hardships for people. But for yours truly who has worked at two major companies over the past 18 years (Microsoft being one) the old adage "third time's a charm" holds true. The worst here at Expedia is the best I've had at other companies. It truly is a great place to work, and I still have a smile on my face when coming into the office each day. I saw some headers of the other reviews prior to submitting my own, and all I can say is they must not have had enough years in their careers or worked at other companies. (A frog in a well cannot see the ocean.) For me, this is the first company I can seriously consider retiring with. Expedia is a big company but still has the charm of a smaller one. There is no true perfect place to work for all have their pros & cons, it's just how you perceive things along with the attitude you present to your co-workers and management. If you are a hard worker, you will be appreciated here at Expedia. In life and work is there really no greater reward? I thank God each and every day for the hardships I’ve slogged-through at other companies, otherwise, Expedia would just be another place to work instead of *THE* place to work for me. I’m here on Saturday (of my own free will mind you) and still have a smile on my face.

Cons

It's a 27-minute drive into work (each way). Other than that, I'm still thinking...
