Pros
You will rub shoulders with some of the best professionals in OTA from around the world. They have great momentum on diversity and are continuing to make improvements at the higher ranks too. Solid senior management. The compensation is good. Without question Expedia is a great company.
Cons
Lot's of first time managers and program managers. A culture of allowing these new managers to run amok. These new managers run the spectrum from retaliators to those who duck and cover using their team as human shields. Directors are disrespected and undermined by these middle managers and Dara and his "A" team seem to be oblivious to it. The senior management for Networking, datacenter and the PMO has cycled out about every three years. The Priceline group has eaten Expedia's lunch everywhere except in the U.S. and seems like Expedia's international teams are treated like redheaded stepchildren. Their projects and initiatives constantly get bumped and deprioritized in favor of state side stuff. I would have thought now is the time to challenge priceline and booking for international dominance. The engineers are ridden mercilessly by command and control program managers. Shouting matches and finger pointing are common. Program Managers have no issue pushing these guys under a bus even though they regularly pull 60 hour weeks to meet a deadline the PM pulled out of their... hat. The PMO encouraged PM's to contradict/challenge the SME's on the technical details of the solution as if they know better than the engineers. The PMO is a mess. Good senior management but completely ineffective program managers and managers of PM's who believe the only way to run a project is via command and control. Not the most effective launch of a PMO.
