Expedia Group reviews

Whether you like Expedia or not (unfortunately) depends on the team you are at and most importantly who is your mananger. I've seen many very talented people giving up on Expedia just because they had no opportunities to grow, no support from their managers or simply because (quite openly) they were not the right fit from the PERSONAL point of view of the team leader. HR politics despite the size of the company are still very poor and in many cases decisions are made based on a personal opinion of a manager. Hcom and EAN have recently started addressing some of this gaps but the GMM (market management team) stays very much behind. It's a shame. As for myself I am constantly evaluating the pros of a strong business organization and cons of poor mananagement practices.

Some departments are more toxic then others. There is existence of cronyism, politics and gossip. it is the first place I clearly witnessed pushing people out (making it miserable experience for individuals they wanted to leave). Remarkably, some less productive employees stay on board for years and float through the days. They do promote within, as per other review some of the managers do not have previous manager experience or were promoted when at Expedia to manager and sometimes director, having held much lower positions at previous companies. This of course can go either way - some seem well warranted others can be more perplexing. The new office in Seattle will result in a horrendous commute and won't help rent supply/demand = cost.
