Pros

Work life balance is great. Culture is laid back in terms of dress code. fun employee events occur across the company.

Cons

Departments do no work cohesively together. Young companies that grow fast do not have solid structure. Management can be political that honesty and integrity is lost.

Pros

- minimal micromanagement if you do your work well - flexible schedule - decent pay for how much work you do (only needed to put in ~20hrs of work at many times to perform well) - larger design teams/systems design include some very kind, talented people

Cons

- lots of promise of growth which is never actioned on, many promotion/raise promises due to exceptional performance and taking on higher role but was never compensated. they try to keep everyone hoping it will happen for as long as possible before they quit and just add responsibility with no compensation. - toxic coworkers (extremely rude on calls, inappropriate/passive aggressive comments, constantly doing job very badly and causing others to do their work for them) - HR never did anything although coworkers across teams were in agreement that this was happening on countless occasions - lots of boomer employees that have worked there for 10-20 yrs and seemingly don't do any work, don't understand anything, cannot grasp current technology or processes and all-around make everything harder day to day by making others compensate for their inability to perform at a baseline level - toxic management, lots of turnover and constant big reorgs/rebrands without following through on the previous ones, caused tons of disorganization and tons of throw-away work/unnecessary pivots - lots of layoffs, many times of people that were the only good employees and all of the people who could barely do their job or were terrible to work with were spared

leadership disconnected from reality

Pros

There are some amazing people who are unfortunately buried in the org chart at Expedia. Underneath the executive level turmoil and politics, at the heart of the company, there is good work being done through collaboration and relationships. Commitment to the company's success is strong even under trying circumstances.

Cons

Executives are so far out of touch with reality that it's laughable. Expectations are high performance, high output, but compensation is not aligned with those expectations. And somehow executives are surprised (and complain at all company meetings) when people leave the company for offers that are more than double the pay for the same or less work. A compelling corporate vision is great, but a vision doesn't pay the bills or send kids to college. For those who care less about compensation, their great ideas and long-term strategies are shuffled through so many layers of organizational cruft and politics that the intended value or the idea itself gets lost in the bureaucracy. The supposed goal is to "move with speed", but employees can only do that if they're working on an exec's pet project, and even then everyone and their dad has to sit through a million meetings, whittle the idea down so much that it becomes meaningless, and then sign off on a pretty PowerPoint before actual work can happen. This is also an unhealthy and toxic organization where leaders behave like toddlers throwing tantrums. It's unfortunate that the most senior executives in the company have placed their trust in leaders who yell at people, slam fists on tables, point blame, and otherwise demonstrate their lack of EQ. It's no wonder so many people are "voting with their feet" and leaving the company.
