Pros

Expedia is an enormously innovative company and they are open to new ideas for sure. You can get a great opportunity to work on leading edge stuff.

Cons

The people. I can't say this enough: the people in Expedia are needlessly fearful, argumentative, and stuck in a management strategy pioneered by former Microsoft hacks who have been laid off over the past 8 years. The Move: Expedia is moving to a horrible campus in Seattle. Yes, it's got the right zip code. No, the new location has none of the amenities Management believes will allow it to hire it's target market of Millenials.

Pros

- Good environment - Nice people - Good benefits - Nice office in London

Cons

As a software engineer, in my opinion, this is a good company to work for if you're looking for a relaxed environment, with not much to do and you're not very interested in career progression. Everything depends on your manager. If you're lucky enough to have a good manager, your experience could be better than mine. There are sooo many managers with not talent at all to manage people.

Thanks for the review! We’re glad to hear that you enjoy the London office and some of our awesome benefits. We’re constantly looking to push the limits of our current tech stack which is in line with our “Test and Learn” culture, but we’d encourage open dialogue with your HR Business Partner if any of employees did not feel challenged.

Pros

A lot of opportunities as the processes are often manual and immature for a company of Expedia's size. The C-level staff are visionary and thought leaders. There is a lot of passion among the staff and innovation is happening. I entered the company with a lot of hope and optimism. You present an environment with amazing opportunity.

Cons

As others have shared there is often an undertow of unhealthy political focus in the company - to the point of being caustic. There is a focus on doing the right things but due to the politics and unrealistic expectations placed upon the line leadership and staff the improvements are mutated and often incomplete. Enterprise class processes and frameworks are often bypassed or ignored in the interest of immediacy. However the consequences of the technical debt that manifests much later are not acknowledged or accounted for. The get it done attitude is amazing however a lot of rework and just plain terrible design result in an often fractured foundation with which the house is built upon. This type of behavior is not anything new in the world of software development and if often a conscious decision however the leadership has to have enough wisdom to fully embrace the fact that rework and longer term active support of those decisions will need to eventually be corrected. The office space is incredibly cramped. While the new office in Seattle has some promise the trade off will be the terrible commute.
