Pros
Expedia is quite socially conscious and values diversity. Working in the travel industry you can have an meaningful impact on people, which has become more fulfilling a Expedia has become more customer centric. The new Seattle campus has nice modern facilities and amenities with nice views
Cons
After years of stable growth, Expedia is going through some turbulent management changes and reorganization. It has become immensely more bureaucratic in recent years. Lots of top down decision making has led to more internal politics where saying “yes” and “how high/fast” is valued over critical thought. Just make sure you deliver a winning test at all cost, including playing with the numbers if necessary. This has limited true innovation leading to the site and core platform falling behind. Since everyone is focused though on tests, even if superficial, core operations get neglected. Individual contributions are also valued over team or organizational contributions leading to inefficiency, randomization and infighting.
