Pros

Worked with some of the smartest people I've met in a great environment. People at Expedia have a rea; passion for travel the Expedia business. Many folks love working there and I was one of them.

Cons

It can be tough to get the simplest of projects through the pipeline. With old platforms slowing dev down and too many overall strategies to enables teams to deliver iterative improvements progress and delivery can be slooooow

Advice to Senior Management

Take ownership of the big and the small problems and call them out for everyone to see, so everyone can work on them. Start delivering smaller improvements much more frequently and take lots of small steps to improve the bigger picture so all the great, simple ideas don't get lost.
