Pros
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.
Cons
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.
Anyone on here work @Expedia Group, specifically VRBO? What is the culture like and how have you seen things change coming out of the Pandemic?
I interviewed with expedia a while ago (didn't end up getting it though) for a different team, but I heard really good things about their culture and growth opps etc. I think they've survived the pandemic fairly well, so I think you should be good. Best of luck!
