Pros

Good people work for Expedia and their efforts are the only thing that keep the company going. The company changes direction and re-orgs all the time and most employees I knew and talked to daily were on edge most day wondering what was next and how it might impact them. Expedia has pretty good benefits and the amount of travel in my position was fair. I like to travel and they don't pinch pennies where you are on the road. I appreciated that we didn't have to stay in the cheapest hotels or book flights with layovers, etc. The other side of hard work is that you learn a lot, I did while there and have skills I can use elsewhere now.

Cons

No work life balance. Level of work for many of the employees is unacceptable. I was promoted a couple times but my position was not backfilled and I just had to do the old job and the new job. This was OK until the person above me left and I had to do three jobs. It was not possible to do a good job at all three positions and my employees were already working too hard to move some of the work load down to them. We did what we could and kept the department functioning but not able to perform as well as I would have liked it.

Pros

The product is amazing and the people creating the product are brilliant. The office locations are truly a site to see. The UK headquarters were in Soho, London and are now in Covent Garden. The office in Montreal is 20 paces form the Notre Dame. The view from US Headquarters is all of Seattle. From a technology perspective the company is bleeding edge and the developers are always creating better ways to present our product to the consumer. Internal development teams design workflow tools that rival our ecommerce solutions. It is a pleasure to tell people you help deliver Expedia to the world.

Cons

Expedia is a vacation spot for inept leadership. I have seen numerous millionaires come into Expedia and waste millions of dollars with little to no thought going into their decision making process. There is absolutely no long-term vision. The review process for employees is based solely on the 'what have you done for me lately' model of management. There is a huge separation between senior management and the teams working to keep the business online. Communication is non-existent unless a leader is blaming an employee for failure to accomplish a goal they never delivered. I can't imagine that any technology leader at Expedia has been successful outside of the work place.
