Pros

- Good company. Very open, very collaborative. - Gives flexibility on thoughts as long as they like it.

Cons

- VERY BAD politics. It's on every org. You are warned if you are going into this company, make sure you know what you are getting into. - They don't really care about your technical ability rather if you are good with your upper management or leadership (AKA if you kiss their #@#) then you're good. - Managers aren't technically strong. They just have been there for a long time - Managers don't have a say on the candidates, upper management does even though they don't directly work with the candidates. - This is the company where you are evaluated on the basis of what your upper management thinks of your work or amount of effort you put in.

Pros

Good work life balance. Average compensation at very low entry bar.

Cons

Focus on politics. A top heavy company where politics is key for survival. Every director/senior director has his/her own agendas and no one worries about work. If you are on their side all is well else will you be singled out. Frequent reorgs due to domain grabbing and realignments. Promotion are random. Too much focus on diversity. Different opinions are not respected and disagreement with your boss is looked down upon. Yes boss culture. Extreme focus on perception management vs the actual work. Firing is too frequent and mostly based on people alignment.

Pros

Everything is automated, systematic and well organized. You don't need to run around for requirements, Everything can be addressed by specific channel/portals. Management is Leadership and policy driven. No need to think additional except work,

Cons

People who are coming here at PYPL, they come with their old mindset, culture and boss pleasant attitude, that is not required at all. PYPL trust everyone without discrimination.
