PayPal Reviews

Pros

Great tech company with great perks, knowledgeable people, and wonderful work environment.

Cons

Hard to advance career quickly

Pros

Vast Resources Excellent Pay / Benefits

Cons

If you're not part of the core operation you're likely in for a rough ride. While their onboarding for acquired companies seemed streamline and the rhetoric talks about how they embrace you as part of the "family" you're really not. You'll be held at arms length, eyed suspiciously and if anything at all goes sideways you're jettisoned as a dead weight. 0/10 - would not be acquired again.

Pros

Awesome company culture, everybody works together and is helpful and trying to inspire

Cons

Short deadlines, heavy work load

Pros

Very good people across the org, who had a strong sense of urgency. PayPal brings real value to brands, and the results are there. Only downside in sales at that time was a bit of a good ole boys club whereby certain employees were set up with preferential lists and deals/money to make them work. Sure that has changed.

Cons

Company has changed in terms of culture. Not nearly as disruptive or hungry. More yes people who are rewarded for never sticking their neck out. Some people have been there for years with little to no performance to speak of. That tends to happens at a certain size. Dan seems like a good guy with the right values, which is important in any leadership scenario.
