      Pros

      Relaxed dress code. Fun employees/co-workers. Allowed personal desk space(limited). Great benefits.

      Cons

      Upper management really doesn't care about you. Nobody listens what's really going on. It's a little high school. You're treated more like a number than a human.

      Pros

      Brand value , market leader is payments , smart folks overall. Consistent growth. Campus in San Jose is nice. Some groups have good amount of fun.

      Cons

      Too many reorgs in product area, ex eBay "leaders" killing the culture of bottom up innovation. Some key tech "gurus" prevent any kind of change in infrastructure.

      Thanks for your input. Management quality and effectiveness is a focus for us and will continue to be. We recently had employees complete the Impact survey to help us identify managers that need additional support to be great managers. Our hiring bar for hiring leaders is high, and has improved in consistency since we rolled out the VP Advancement Committee that now has a full vetting process for all VP level promotions and hires. The adage is true, you join a company and leave a manager, so it’s critically important to us that we have managers at PayPal who embody our values of innovation, collaboration, inclusion and wellness and that they coach and support their staff.

      Pros

      I have worked in HCL, NetApp and VMWare. I like PayPal the most. I have completed 1 year at Paypal and this is my 1st review. PayPal provides Very good package :) - First most My team has good Work life balance. Not sure about other teams. Nobody cares what others do. Team follows Agile with 2 weeks sprint. Flexible Office Timings. Nobody cares at what time you login / logoff. Work from home option. Good support from manager and team for higher education (I completed M.Tech part time). Very good Transport Facility. (They have scheduled timing shuttles and also Door drops if you stay late) - This is awesome. Free Snacks (Usual Tea/coffee vending machine, Biscuits, Plain vanilla & chocolate cakes, Tropicana, Real and Appy juices. Heritage Badam milk all flavors :) ) Recently they started healthy campaign and started providing few healthy foods for a short span. (Peanuts, Dates, Buttermilk, spouts, bananas, other healthy snacks) Annual Events celebrated by PayPal is awesome. Very good Gym with Trainer, Gym attached with Rest rooms for bathing (Includes towel, shampoo, Body wash, coconut oil, safe locker) Play area - Shuttle badminton - 2 courts I play for 2 hours every day. Bollywood Dance classes. They also arrange guitar classes, Running club (3 months batch) Some kind of club for people interested in Photography, Music and Singing , I don't have anything to complain as of now. Waiting for my appraisal cycle. Will come to know the real face of my manager soon :)

      Cons

      Their choice of food vendors... Lunch is the only thing I hate at PayPal.
