Pros

Expedia is in a great location in downtown Bellevue in a nice new tower with excellent views. Easy commute for many people because it is located a block from the Bellevue Transit Center the serves Seattle and the Eastside. The commute from my house is exceptional good. There two Zip cars at the disposal for personal use. Good travel benefits on Hotels dot com throught the employee discount. There is an active travel talk alias that is contributed by many people that are professional travelers as well seasoned personal travelers.

Cons

There are many layers of overhead to get things done that seems excessive for a smaller company.

Pros

Constant state of transformation is ripe environment for new hires and functional experts from big name tech companies

Cons

Pre-covid the culture was really special. Collaborative, engaging, people-centric, with a unifying mission to enable travel for the world. Since covid there has been a revolving door of executive leadership, and with each round, they throw out the current strategy to try something "new" without building from the current or past successes. Constant change, but no clear vision or strategy of what they are trying to change to. Lack of strategy and low risk tolerance leads to too many priorities with not enough investment to move the needle in anything. Quarterly layoffs, but executed quietly team by team so as not to make news. No psychological safety. Talent strategy since covid is to hire externally over internal promotions to gain "functional expertise" therefore difficult to grow your career. Siloed divisions not working towards common goal. Lacks operating model maturity needed for a company of this size likely do to revolving door of execs and priorities. A cash cow company with an identity crisis trying to be an AI innovator. Build vs buy mentality slows them down. Too many exec pet projects that aren't vetted with proper business cases.
