Pros
Expedia allows one to interface with a very diverse culture of people and allows for travel opportunity if you're in the right job at the right time. If you like challenging environments, have a substantial tolerance for ambiguity, enjoy ineffective leadership, then this is the place for you! Seriously though, I've met some very smart and good-hearted people. Oh, and supposedly we get good travel discounts, however I've been unsuccessful at getting these as I'm always directed to the main website. And when asking merchants [e.g. a hotel chain] about obtaining a discount I'm told we can get, they've always declined. I don't see many emails about people stealing other people's lunches.
Kontras
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.
