Pros

PayPal is an awesome company to learn more about payments and e-commerce technologies. What it takes to build a "real business" processing ~4000$ per second
Great place to get a name brand experience - wish they treated good employees better!

Cons

The management is good but not what it takes to be leaders of a top 10 internet company - lack the vision and the ability to empower employees to be able to execute on vision

Advice to Senior Management

Provide employees with more avenues to explore and innovate outside of the "core' which for obvious reasons needs to remain well protected and slow moving.

Pros

Great product! Definitely something that will be around for a long time.

Cons

Dealing with incompetent management, especially in the Compliance Department

Advice to Senior Management

The head of Compliance should be terminated.

Pros

Great place to work if you are interested in Payments.

Cons

Paypal is the leader in online payments and is now being lead by Bankers, and is becoming more like a Bank than an innovative startup it once was.

Advice to Senior Management

Focus on innovation, go back to your startup roots and stop hiring Bankers for top leadership positions.

Pros

Employer friendly, work life balance, easy on immigration policies

Cons

management is biased to few people and they dont listen everybody

Advice to Senior Management

be open to ideas

An interesting place to work at. If I have chances to choose another time, I would also like to choose Paypal

Cons

None of the materials are applied, but I think there might lie some disadvantages around the downside risk in Ebay

Advice to Senior Management

If there are chances to advise to management, I would like to say that the company can utilize all its materials into helping youngers grow in the company

Free AC Transport
Flexible work timings

16 vacation days with no sick days, a little low for the industry
Its a big company, so many who come from a 'start-up' background may think its slow

Advice to Senior Management
