Pros

Orbitz is a company that understands that people have situations in life that in some cases may cause the employee to need a non-tradational method of continueing to complete thier work at Orbitz. In several situations I have seen Orbitz support thier employees by offering flexible work hours and if needed the ability to work remotely. Employees are grateful for the flexibility and the generousity of the company. Productivity appears to increase for most people that are telecommuting.

Cons

In some cases, certain individuals did not do well in working remotely.

Pros

Where do I start? - Amazing work life balance! I could go on and on about this but I'll leave it at that... - Casual dress code (this means no heels necessary.. which is a HUGE perk if you ask me) - Christmas day thru January 2nd off work! (Paid vacation!) - More than enough vacation/sick days - Excellent interview process, very structured and quick response time - Great people-- helpful, innovative, strong team players, most people here have a sense of humor

Cons

- My main complain is that HR does not do a good job with new employees meeting other newbys within the organization - Example: I was hoping for a few planned lunches, meet & greets, new employee happy hours, etc

Pros

Collaborative teams, accessible and engaged senior management, regular communication to employees about company goals & priorities (to keep everyone on the same page), great work-life balance, excellent location in the heart of Chicago, seemingly high percentage of employees who have over 5 years of experience at the company

Cons

In addition to the consumer facing brands such as Orbitz.com, CheapTickets and ebookers, OWW has several B2B units (Orbitz for Business, Orbitz Worldwide Private Label, etc.) that take a back seat to the more visible parts of the organization. At least internally it would be helpful to keep even the B2B divisions at the forefront of employees' minds, considering their importance to the company's overall bottom line.
