Pros

1. Being part of Expedia family, you can say you work at Expedia as Hotwire brand is not well known. 2. Office location is good.

Cons

1. For career growth and promotion, you need to be in good book of directors/managers. 2. Every year or two layoffs happens as business is going down. 3. People play blame game if something goes wrong. 4. Lake of motivation and all smart people are leaving or already left. 5. No value of engineers even though it's so called tech company. 6. No RSU and No competitive market salary.

Pros

Great people and a relaxed working environment. I appreciate the time people take to work together on a project. No egos whatsoever.

Cons

My commute was my only problem as I was at least an hour away by car. Other than that, I don't have much to complain about.
