Pros

Expedia Inc provides an opportunity to work for one of very few successful .com companies - and there are now dozens of lines of business and points of sale within the EI family, so there's lots to choose from. The work is frequently fast paced, and there are opportunities to innovate.

Cons

Unfortunately, Expedia suffers from a highly dysfunctional communications structure - not only does top management not talk to employees, frequently members of the top management teams don't talk to each other, resulting in lack of alignment towards goals, and duplicated or contradictory work. The Expedia culture has also shifted towards a dramatically more top-down decision model, which doesn't always sit well with employees who were often hired to think and act entreprenurially.

Pros

Incredible benefits! Quality, affordable medical insurance, 401k, wellness reimbursement, travel reimbursement, plenty of PTO, etc. They have fresh food cooked daily for breakfast and lunch, available for purchase. They also have free food, such as yogurt cups, cheese sticks, and shelf-stable fruits available to all employees. The benefits keep many of us here. I will say, have had two supervisors so far, and they’ve each been great. Very understanding, yet motivating. I haven’t yet met a supervisor who didn’t value their supervisees.

Cons

The main digital platforms we use do not function efficiently, which makes a noticeable impact on our work. On a perfect day, you’ll still spend 8-12 minutes per hour waiting on load screens, but we have experienced days in which the sites were down for about 6 hours within an 8 hour day. I feel that our quarterly goals are not constructed with this in mind. Another major con is—like many places now—job security is an issue. AI is taking over the job of many employees, and while we’re told to embrace it, it’s difficult to do so when you could walk in any day and be told to pack your things.
