Pros

Interesting business domain and strong management team. PayPal still has places to go.

Pros

Very interesting opportunities if you're working in the right groups - consumer, business development, a couple of others. The people used to be great, but too much mediocre talent coming in lately and too much good talent leaving.

Cons

Management isn't really taking care of the employees as well as they should. Tons of churn and process - really difficult to get anything done. And the technology is a mess - it is going to take another 2-3 years to get that sorted out.

Pros

The people are great. Some of the smartest and most passionate that I've ever met.

Cons

Advancement is difficult if you are in the Program Management Office (PMO). With the PMO being decentralized, it's almost impossible to be promoted unless there's a reorg. Since you are managing one business unit (BU) it's hard to take on additional responsibilities outside of your BU.
