Pros

Big growth in recent years. Must give credit to that. Money investment done well. Partner management done well.

Cons

Top leaders-middle layer-employees structure is more like 20-60-20. The company is a money making machine for top management And the HUGE crowd of middle management. They are like 80% of the company. A typical place where only non management staffs do the real work to build the products. Many managers are slackers. Top leaders are inspirational speakers. They make you trust, admire them so much, but when it comes to Feedback, Deliver, management is the only one who is giving Feedback, and employees are the only ones who do delivering. The company is also a former Washington Mutual 'mafia' occupied place. WaMus are very exclusive, causing an awkward situation where you are not welcome to be part of it, neither you can have a different voice. Awkward. Juniors, consider yourself warned, unless you want to become a useless person who is only good at politics, do not join. Your managers speak about you as such : do not tell these kids that they can get more salary somewhere else or they will all leave. You know someone who really care about your career or really smart does not talk like that.

Pros

The sad $250 travel credit we get

Cons

Toxic management aka darice in the northeast. It’s amusing to see all these job postings, titled “We’re growing! Come and join one of the best travel companies” lol no you are replacing head count from all the people you laid off and trying to keep up with everyone that is leaving because no one wants to be apart of that. Expedia Group just isn’t what it once was, they aren’t loyal to you. Great time to go and work for the competitor, better pay, benefits and culture, what Expedia couldn’t bring to the table.

Pros

It's a large organization, and I imagine some spots are better than others. And even through the pandemic it has managed to maintain its business foothold as #2 of online travel agent. Some managers try to do the right thing but it's not common.

Cons

The particular organization I was at has a toxic culture, probably because it's a cost center and an afterthought because most of the company is focusing on sales rather than post-sales. A certain Senior Director I reported to is the worst kind of leader: Will do anything to get his own promotion to VP due to his own insecurity that his peer have all risen and he has not. To gain executive visibility he'll make any promise that is asked of him and completely ignore the reality of his very stressed out organization. As a result the departure rate is super high, particularly the ones who are capable and can easily find jobs; but instead of focusing on recruiting to replenish, he has some high minded notion of what kind of person he wants on his team, and so hiring is severely lacking, which in turns drive more departure, and the organization falls further behind, which makes him less secure and more desperate, which means the viscous cycle worsens.
