Pros

Never got a chance to work here. Was a huge advocate for Expedia and wanted to work there, so I was thrilled when they sourced me and reached out to me. One conversation later, promises made, and I was ignored

Cons

Their recruiting team, particularly their current Talent Advisor - Global Talent Acquisition, need to treat people with common decency and respect. I was emailed and sourced directly for a position by this Talent Advisor, rearranged my schedule for the interview and prepared extensively, and was told I was perfect, and that they would follow-up with me within a week to get things moving, and i never heard from her again. I emailed, called, reached out to her on LinkedIn (the way she sourced me) and she never responded. I even asked her to let me know if the position was closed, nothing. She touts herself as a customer oriented, recruiting and skilled talent advisor but is the complete opposite... Totally lost faith in the 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.
