Expedia Group reviews

Forced outsourcing, little technical innovation, increasing politics and uncertainty in team structures, frequent re-orgs without giving sufficient time to teams to deliver. More and more managers are less and less technical. Expedia used to be a "technology" company which used to make money in travel business. Now it is a "travel" company - no longer a technology company. This basically means that there is no technical innovation. Poor communication - like the move to bellevue downtown with insufficient parking for employees.

It seems there is an equation for determining a true timeline for projects which applies only at Expedia. Project Completion = Estimated Work Time x 14 Days. This equation only applies for projects which actually complete. If you're lucky, your project will complete. Or, as is often the case, your project will suffer many deaths and rebirths. The ineffective leadership is probably the biggest reason this occurs. Decisions are made in a vacuum without any representation or input from those who actually know the details. These 'leaders' make decisions on a whim and seem to negate any positive action taken by their staff. Many people tend to use the 'ignore' button. It baffles me when team 'A' asks team 'B' for assistance and then when the feedback is provided, it falls upon deaf ears and no response from team 'A' is ever received. Many people here only care about themselves and could care less about their staff nor anyone else for that matter.
