Pros

-Great benefits (Travel reimbursement, $700 for gym memberships, etc.) -Travel is a fun industry

Cons

-Expedia acquisition of the company has dramatically changed the culture for the worse. -Company claims to care about developing women and then put a guy in charge who addresses women as "honey" and talks about how "pretty" various women are...he has been at Expedia for 15+ years so clearly Expedia finds this behavior acceptable -Most people are job searching -Chicago is now a "satellite" office which means there is limited career growth

Grim outlook post Expedia acquisition

Pros

Expedia benefits are great. The company prides on being action oriented and there is a culture of test and learn.

Cons

So many talented people already left or were let go. Those who are staying were offered much lower level of title and responsibilities, so morale is low. No clarity on quality of projects to be worked on. Bellevue teams are already too bloated with duplicate work and wasted effort. Expedia touted their goals to have 30 percent women VPs by 2020 yet no effort was made to retain Orbitz women leaders, so many talented women were let go: they were directors and VPs at Orbitz.

Pros

Great place to work for work/life balance, interesting job, smart people, lots of fun.

Cons

Orbitz just got bought out by Expedia and 40% of the employees are being laid off. Many of the ones that are staying did not get satisfactory roles in the new company, so the outlook in the near future is very poor.
