Pros

I am proud to be part of one of the strongest companies in the travel industry. There are many great innovations, initiatives and new partnerships that are truely shaping the online travel world. Changes come slowely but over the years I've seen many great ideas coming true and really "revolutionizing travel industry with the power of technology" (which is Expedia's mission)

Cons

Whether you like Expedia or not (unfortunately) depends on the team you are at and most importantly who is your mananger. I've seen many very talented people giving up on Expedia just because they had no opportunities to grow, no support from their managers or simply because (quite openly) they were not the right fit from the PERSONAL point of view of the team leader. HR politics despite the size of the company are still very poor and in many cases decisions are made based on a personal opinion of a manager. Hcom and EAN have recently started addressing some of this gaps but the GMM (market management team) stays very much behind. It's a shame. As for myself I am constantly evaluating the pros of a strong business organization and cons of poor mananagement practices.

Pros

Nice medical benefits, pay for health club, decent vacation. fun environment with lots of events. Really good opportunity for interns -- some with no previous experience come in and land a good job with a well known company. Additionally, if you have a good manager, there are opportunities to grow and chose different roles. Lots of drinks, beer in the office (kegs even). Lots of food from events. Fast paced and overall good people that are a pleasure to work with. Decent pay. They are growing fast, have multiple offices and a choice of Macbook or PC. The new office in Seattle will be a stunning campus.

Cons

Some departments are more toxic then others. There is existence of cronyism, politics and gossip. it is the first place I clearly witnessed pushing people out (making it miserable experience for individuals they wanted to leave). Remarkably, some less productive employees stay on board for years and float through the days. They do promote within, as per other review some of the managers do not have previous manager experience or were promoted when at Expedia to manager and sometimes director, having held much lower positions at previous companies. This of course can go either way - some seem well warranted others can be more perplexing. The new office in Seattle will result in a horrendous commute and won't help rent supply/demand = cost.

Pros

Good work life balance. good downtown location

Cons

High upper management has in the last 3 years or so started cronyism. Sorry to see a good company doing this. I know of at least 7 examples of this person appointing his ex colleagues in high positions... there may be more that I dont know.
