Pros

The company is open to different opportunities and ideas, which I do appreciate a lot. Another thing impressed me is that the co-workers here are very diverse and open-minded. What is more, the location is great, Chicago is a great city which has a lot of cool things to offer.

Cons

The internal system is a little bit complicated, it takes longer time to set up everything and keep thing running efficiently.

Thank you for your feedback, indeed we are proud to foster a corporate culture that encourages a diverse and open-minded exchange of ideas across all teams. And we couldn’t agree more that Chicago is a great location, in fact Orbitz was a pioneer in the area's rapidly growing tech community. Since the launch of Orbitz.com in June 2001 we have grown to become one of the city’s largest and most successful technology companies, further paving the way for Chicago to gain national recognition as a hub for tech innovation. Regarding your comment that the internal system is complicated, we hope you will consider discussing that matter with your supervisor, because he/she will be just as eager to work on a solution as you are excited to have an open exchange of ideas with your coworkers. In the meantime, we will gladly pass along your feedback to senior management that they should “keep being bold and trying new ideas!”

Pros

Great people, professional. Understanding of work-life balance. Good benefits. Decent work culture. HQ located near train station, easy to commute.

Cons

The people are great for the most part, but I found it difficult to grow my career there. I'm sure there are stories of people growing there, and I'm not taking away from that. It just didn't happen to me.

Fun at first, but no upward mobility

Pros

office location, fun co workers, OK benefits

Cons

Management is totally disconnected, I had 2 different managers and 2 different directors within 2 years, don't get fooled with all the "perks" (and their "awards"), healthy snacks were non existant (or very limited quantity), they promote upward mobility or lateral moves but in reality HR does not help you and try to dissuade you to apply.
