Vantaggi
Remarkably bright and enthusiastic people work at Expedia making it easy to go to work each day. The people there are passionate about what they do and love travel.
Svantaggi
Unfortunately Expedia sees its people as line items in an expense report. Plus, it constantly hires from outside and reorganizes,eliminating any and all chances for promotion and development. There is a relentless focus on numbers and short term results. Expedia talks a good game, but its actions don't match its words and it is an extremely political organization. Every VP, every Director, likes nothing better to build their own empire and attack other parts of the organization. It's a company that would much rather make a single extra dollar than invest in its employees. Customers matter even less; there is a near singular focus on transactions, bottom-line results and hard-line negotiating tactics with suppliers.
