Expedia Group reviews

Unfortunately, the culture has shifted dramatically. In my final year, I experienced what I can only describe as a coordinated effort by management to push out a long-term, high-performing employee. After volunteering for "above and beyond" projects, I was met with shifting, vague, and factually incorrect performance accusations. Despite providing documented evidence to management, my input was entirely ignored. The individual I needed to discuss these things with became unreachable, and the goalposts for my performance moved regularly. Based on my discussions with many colleagues, this is not an isolated incident; there is a growing sentiment that management uses "gaslighting" tactics and false narratives to facilitate exits, even for those with a proven track record. The environment has become one of high anxiety, where trust is low and "mental harassment" has replaced the once-supportive culture.

Toxic and fear-driven culture. Leadership rules by ego and intimidation, not vision. 3 CEOs in my tenure, and this latest leadership team has completely lost touch with employees and reality. Decision making is non-existent. Leadership can’t seem to make, or stand by a single clear decision. Constant pivots, reorgs, and shifting priorities have left everyone confused, anxious, and burnt out. Endless layoffs with zero clarity or strategy. Talented people are treated as disposable. Micromanagement and control have replaced creativity and innovation. The company talks about culture but does nothing to nurture it. It’s all empty words. Smoke and mirrors. The new leadership team seems solely focused on stock performance. Meanwhile, morale, productivity, mental health and wellbeing are at rock bottom. Even with a woman CEO, women’s advancement at EG is non-existent. It is heartbreaking. Rather than empowering one another, many women are forced into toxic competition for survival, cutting one another off at the knees. No career growth or mobility. Once you're in a role, you're pigeon holed, no matter how talented you are. Multiple colleagues have taken medical leaves for mental health. The anxiety and uncertainty here are worse than during the pandemic, and that’s saying something as a travel company. Even senior leaders are quitting abruptly. When your Chief People Officer walks out overnight, that’s not a coincidence, it’s a red flag.
