Should I leave expedia for 10% base salary increase?

Feb 6, 2021 24 Comments

I got an offer for a fully remote position. The base salary will be increased by 10%. The new company is in fin tech industry, they arent unicorn through. My current team at expedia is still doing great, however, I am a bit worried about travel industry. So I dont know whether I should leave or not.

    Yes. Take the new job. This pandemic is an 18 to 36 month “thing.” So folks won’t be hopping on planes in full force until 2023. This (18 to 36 months) is a fact—but people are acting like, “in six months everything will be fine...” Take the remote gig, make more money, and go back to Expedia with fintech experience—and more TC.

    No, it's a bad idea. Moving comes at an expensive cost: you have to rebuild your colleagues' trust in you, etc. All that effort for 10%? Get a better offer, and then switch. Don't sell yourself short.

    • Totally makes sense what apple said. But how much raise would you suggest to change?
      Feb 6, 2021
    • Agreed. Since you managed to get one offer, with some more preparation and time you could potentially easily get a better offer. I am in a similar situation, have one offer but working on others to negotiate and then jump. I have loved every bit of working at Expedia so far but don't want to get attached to my current job.

    I would move. Expedia is surviving on cash reserves. It can take years for the firm to make money again and no one knows how the travel will be a year from now.

  • TC/YoE first please. If you seek help then start with it.

      This is such bs. Unless the person also gives details like their position & location, only TC & YOE means nothing. Stop this kiddish bs.
