Pros

Orbitz offers software engineers the opportunity to work in a fun environment. The travel sector is very complex requiring very interesting and engaging technology solutions. There is no dress code so the atmosphere is comfortable, friendly, and allows developers to collaborate and get work done. The company provides espresso machines, soda machines, and limited breakfast options at no charge.

Cons

Salary compensation is competitive though bigger tech companies generally pay more for more senior developers.

Pros

Young and sometimes fun work atmosphere. You also get the opportunity to work with some really cool and fun technology. There is also a casual and sometimes relaxed atmosphere.

Cons

Nontechnical Management that is often times out of touch with reality and makes decisions that negatively impact the employees and the company. They also tend not to listen their engineers that are the experts and are doing the work.

Pros

The casual work environment is fantastic. Wear what you want, work from home when you want, work the hours that you want (within reason, anyway). I've always had great managers, and their managers (and theirs) typically are always open to listen if I have something to say. Pay is good, though not quite as great as some tech companies in the same area. Benefits are good -- though, again, not great -- and management listens. Last year they took away the company-wide week off between Christmas and New Years. Everyone complained so they reinstated it for this year and beyond.

Cons

Atmosphere seems bureaucracy-free, yet some decisions that could take a day end up taking weeks or months. Like most people, I wish compensation and benefits were a little better (soda and coffee are free, but you have to pay a discounted price for juice and sparkling water).
