Expedia is cutting some roles as it looks toward the skills needed for the future, the company confirmed to Business Insider on Monday.
“We are eliminating roles as well as opening some new roles as we remain disciplined about assessing the skills we need for the future,” an Expedia Group spokesperson said in a statement. “We are also simplifying our structure and reducing organizational layers to move faster and with more accountability. These are not easy decisions, and we are grateful for the contributions of our colleagues who are impacted.”
It’s unclear how many people were affected or which divisions the cuts occurred in.
Several Expedia employees posted about being laid off on LinkedIn on Monday.
“After a decade of proudly working at Expedia, my role has been impacted due to organizational changes,” Natasha Morosov Pereira, an operations improvement manager, wrote, adding, “While this transition wasn’t expected, I’m grateful for everything I’ve learned and optimistic about what’s ahead.”
Also on Monday, over a dozen Expedia employees shared the same message on LinkedIn promoting openings at the travel booking company: “Expedia Group currently has OVER 250 roles open! Let’s transform travel together.”
Expedia joins several other companies that have cut roles in 2026, including Citi and T-Mobile.
Like Expedia, many companies cutting roles this year and last have cited an effort to flatten organizational structures and move faster in order to prepare for the future.
