Expedia vs Visa !!
I am about to get offers from Visa and Expedia. What would be the better option in terms of learning and growth ? TIA
What role?
SDE
Depends on tc.
Visa dog. It’s a utility that people need globally. Expedia is an ad driven shitshow of a business.
Get a better third option. Not TMobile
What's wrong with T-Mobile?
It's no better than Expedia or Visa
Expedia has good wlb
I worked at Visa years ago. Its a very red tape ridden place where college grads start as Senior which is ridiculous. One senior that came in tried to set up eclipse for 3 days and then she walked out and never came back.
Lol.. 😅
There’s still a fair amount of red tape, but it reduces every year. I’d recommend Visa if and only if you join a team working on consumer or merchant facing products.
Based on what I read about the red tape at Visa, Expedia for sure. I hope you don't get stuck in some UI heavy team. Moving pixels and changing colors can be draining.
Great wlb. Not so high tc.
Expedia Worldwide Engineering (EWE) backend is good for learning the system design. I don't know anything about homeaway, orbitz, etc. Expedia Group mainly competes with booking, airbnb, etc.
EWE is no more... dissolved into Bexg and split twixt Hub and Wayfinders. New world, new lingo. Get a clue, get a life, and get hip, Wanda!
