Pros

Expedia Affiliate Network (EAN) feels like a startup, with a smaller head count than the rest of Expedia Inc. They hire genuinely lovely people (credit to the HR team), and while the work environment is relaxed, the ethos is to work hard, but have fun with doing so. There are lots of opportunities to progress, and the company has a lot of resources to get the job done.

Cons

- EAN is completely obsessed with their profit metric (MC). - The company seems disposed to being reactive to competitor moves, rather than pioneering. - Probably not the best place for a new graduate to start a career. The company currently has no measures in place to coach new grads or transition them smoothly to the cooperate environment.

Pros

The engineers and design team I've worked with at Expedia range from excellent to good but my experience with HR has been horrific! They all seem to have extremely low IQ and most of them don't have college education.

Cons

Expedia is the only company I know of that hires people consistently with only high school degrees. Being an Engineering hiring manager, I worked closely with recruiters. One of the recruiters told me that the VP of HR said she had work experience as a recruiter and then she asked in a meeting what an ATS was (an ATS is Applicant Tracking System). It's like someone claiming to be a SW Engineer and then asks what Software is!

The Unspoken Rules

Pros

Pay and Benefits. Travel Discounts. The ability to work for a company everyone recognizes.

Cons

1. Unless you're prepared to say something that makes you and your director look good, even if you have no clue what you're talking about, say nothing at all. 2. Underachievers and rule breakers will get ahead as long as they make friends with someone who matters. 3. Management must be re-org'd on at least a bi-yearly basis 4. Management is to have as little knowledge as possible about what their directs do yet will immediately tell directs how their jobs should be done. 5. Career life expectancy is not to exceed 2-3 years. 6. Always point fingers at others. 7. Never check the facts before pointing said fingers. 8. Never take responsibility for your own screw ups. 9. Insignificant business functions take precedence over customer service and experience. 10. If someone makes you unhappy, see to it that their bonuses are doc'd 80%
