Pros

Even after 10 years, Orbitz has a young, energetic, start-up feel. You are surrounded by really smart people who love to share their knowledge and experience. Always open to exploring newest technologies. Opportunities for web software engineers in numerous areas including Air, Hotel, Car, SEO, Finance, Machine Learning, Business Intelligence, Big Data. Company is getting a lot better about fostering innovation and encouraging engineers to be creative.

Cons

As with most successful tech companies, we lose really good engineers sometimes. Stacked ranking is old-school way of managing promotions, bonuses, and raises.

Pros

Orbitz allows its employees to do whatever is best for them to meet the missing to unlock the joy of travel for the customers. If you are willing to put in the effort to find, quantify, and solve a problem, you will be given the power and authority to accomplish your goal and expand your career. The only limiting factor at Orbitz is you. You are able to take on as many challenges as you like and to learn as much as you like. In exchange you will be compensated well.

Cons

While there is never politics and bureaucracy, there is a tendency toward extreme consensus before improvements can be made while new features are easily adopted with no concrete expression of ROI. Company-wide bonus metrics are not available on demand and available in ways that could really be actionable on a day to day basis for a majority of employees. In some years this has made the lack of a bonus a surprise.
