Pros

1. For people new to Prague, it’s a great place to make friends, people are overall very nice and friendly 2. When you manage to reach the bonus, the salary isn’t bad. 3. Nice office, good benefits, and company breakfasts. 4. There's some flexibility 5. Great for people who enjoy cold calling, handling complaints, and don’t feel the need to grow within a company.

Cons

This is only to Partner Success/"Associate Account Manager"/"Partnerships Coordinator" and related positions: 1. This isn’t a true account management position—it’s more like a call center. They attract candidates by posting the role under “nicer” titles like "Partnerships Coordinator" or "Associate Account Manager," but in reality, it involves cold-calling numerous people each day just to reach a few who are willing to talk. You need to have long conversations with around twelve people/decision makers daily. It’s a lot of prep, stress, and pressure for every call attempts, just to reach a few meaningful conversations. The stress of hitting these targets consistently is intense. Beyond quantity, there’s pressure to persuade partners to take certain actions, of course. It’s no surprise that turnover is high—even new hires often feel frustrated within their first few months. The job setup is unsustainable and can seriously harm mental health. 2. The culture isn’t inspiring or ambitious. Even leaders lack understanding of internal processes and the industry. When you ask questions, it’s hard to get clear answers. There’s a sense that no one really knows what they’re doing, and people seem to just “keep up appearances” until they can find a better job. 3. Since it’s a large company, you need to open a ticket for almost anything you need. Tickets are often handled inefficiently. Personally, I needed some documents from HR and was ignored at first, then they lost my request, and eventually I didn’t receive the documents in time. 4. Most customer service teams are outsourced, and communication with them isn’t straightforward. Partners often get frustrated with how customer service handled their issues, which leads to complaints directed at the “account manager.” This pulls focus away from the actual work you need to do and turns it into customer service management instead.

Pros

Benefits, amazing coworkers, possibility to WFH (hybrid).. diversity and inclusion, company events.

Cons

Lots and lots of micromanagement, to many people to approve any single decisions. Too many unnecessary meetings. Also uncertain future as many layoffs happens because they moving labour to cheapest country by using external vendors (India, Philippines, Morocco..) so work and customers support is degrading significantly. Lack of career growth. I would only consider this job and company as temporary opportunity. Employees are just a number. That's big corpo life.

Pros

Work/life balance, individual people are good

Cons

Leadership that entered the company and pushed out acquired Brand's leadership is weak, and as uninspiring as can be. Lack of vision. Oversubscribed to DEI and hiring based on DEI on all levels. DEI hire SVP was a failure, caused irreparable damage, and it took too long to correct that failure. As someone else called out, Expedia Culture is a Fassade. They pretend to care about people but their true face comes through when they lay off their people with inhumane conditions and "packages".
