Pros
The industry (travel) is pretty cool - things are always changing, and there are a million problems to solve. Orbitz seems to take the smartest people and put them into really challenging assignments - once you are recognized as a "really smart person" the problem space becomes pretty awesome. The fact the office in the train station is a nice perk if you take Metra in - no walk in winter.
Cons
The flipside of "things always changing" is that tactics are fairly flexible. It seems like the company has done a good job of keeping the goals steady for the past few years, however if you need 6 months of tactics as well as general goals then Orbitz might not work for you.
