Pros

The people are great, there is great work-life balance and management genuinely cares about their people.

Cons

You still have the standard x number of days of PTO but that's not a huge deal.

Pros

Orbitz fully supports a healthy work-life balance, understanding that life happens and hours spent in a cube aren't the sole metric for gauging quality work. They support their employees by offering, and even encouraging, the pursuit of various career opportunities, even if it is in a different area of the company. Personal growth is also a focus with various groups for mentoring, for women, etc. There is an overall happy "vibe" and management is very accessible - great culture.

Cons

Salary isn't quite what of some major companies can offer. However, the company is continually growing, and the work-life balance takes a huge stress off compared to the lifestyle at some of those other compaies. Some adjustments still being made as far as company organization, but that is to be expected with a growing company.

Glad to know you appreciate the work/life balance at Orbitz and that you have found numerous opportunities for personal growth. Thank you also for the idea to conduct follow-up meetings shortly after a new employee has joined the team. While that is something that we currently do on an intermittent basis, we will formalize a process in 2015 and make it standard procedure within the first two weeks of onboarding. Thanks again for the helpful suggestion.

Pros

Challenging work to make complex transactions appear simple and easy. Have a global impact and at the end of the day the general public cares about what you do. Smart people who are hugely supportive and willing to drop what they are working on at any time to provide help. Open culture that encourages sharing with the greater tech community.

Cons

Very self-directed culture that gives you lot's of freedom but not always clear on the priorities. Very competitive industry makes it feel like there's always a zillion things to do.
