Pluspunten
- It is a decent place to work, with a great work-life balance where you can leave work at work and not need to work 60 hours a week. - The pay is alright and the bonus helps fill in the gap, but even more positions and employees are below the market average for the Seattle area. There are also a fair amount of other, actually useful, perks for employees. - There is a good amount of things outside of work you can help with and volunteer for. They also offering a decent matching program for donation and volunteering.
Minpunten
- The biggest issue is the lowering standards for employees. There are a lot of smart people working at Expedia, but those people have started to leave due to boredom and better offers elsewhere. Their replacements are considerably worse. - Very low hiring standards, there are a lot of smart people out there looking for a new job, but it seems like they are no longer getting hired here, probably because of the below average wages. Also, actually fire bad employees, do not let them keep doing nothing and dragging down other people's morale. - Reorgs happen way too often and, in most cases, for no real purpose. They just happen, something changes, and the waters of who is doing what just gets murkier. - Most of the Middle and Upper Management are not the smartest and it makes working for them really hard. They seem to say stuff that is a complete opposite of the employees below them, the ones doing the actual jobs. - HQ in Bellevue is massively over capacity, most people have a four foots desk that is barely big enough for two monitors and a laptop. But, yet we are still three years out from moving into our new building we have had for over a year. - So much wasted money, we have so many areas where five things are doing the work that one thing could do. A prime example are the applications and tools used within Expedia. Why do we need so many things that all do the same thing.
