Vantaggi

-Actively investing in diversity and inclusion after finally creating a D&I team in 2020. -Travel benefits

Svantaggi

Things have steadily declined over the past two years. HomeAway was a dream company when I joined in 2017 and lost all it’s charm through the Expedia acquisition. I do not recommend joining the company at this time. -We have gone through 3 company re-orgs in the past 2 years. - All the best engineering talent has left due to company instability, corporate red tape, and constant changes. - Women representation in the engineer department is sad and women aren’t promoted as quickly as male peers. - There are inexperienced managers who aren’t given training before giving them leadership roles. - Soo many silos. - Due to covid the company is tight on funds and not adequately taking care of the employees they do have left. No pay increases and limited promotions will not help retain talent who have dedicated their lives to this company during a pandemic.

Vantaggi

HomeAway technology stack has come a long way. One of the most appealing things about working here is the fact that you get to work with cutting edge technology. In addition, the engineering team are super smart, so working here is a great networking opportunity too.

Svantaggi

Company is getting pretty big, and if you end up on the wrong team, you may find it that it is difficult for you to be impactful.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a thoughtful review. We love a good tech stack as much as the next tech company and it’s great to hear you enjoy working on ours. Our Data Science and Engineering teams are so important to the success of HomeAway. You’re right though, we are growing rapidly. If someone finds themselves on a team that doesn’t quite feel right, we highly encourage internal movement and having a conversation with your manager.
