Pros

- Wellness days - Flexibility on shifts (4 days) - They genuinely make an effort with inclusion - Remote working

Cons

- Compensation is very low compared to competitors - Management is very poor. They lack people management skills, unable to motivate. They fall into every trap of what makes a bad manager such as micromanage and focus on the negatives while ignoring hard work. - Career stagnation. So many internal employees, so little job opportunities so it’s normal to be stuck in same department for years - Stressful environment. Very high staff turnover and absenteeism. It became a regular occurrence that staff would be out on long term stress leave or leave the company altogether - Staff feedback surveys were never worked on in a meaningful way - Little appreciation for tenure. There for over 10 years? They give you a pin

Pros

Lots of extremely intelligent people.

Cons

Incompetent leaders. The company constantly lurches between org changes and headcount freezes. For 3+ years leaders have been moving chairs on the decks of the Titanic. Those who have the power to make changes have the most invested in maintaining the status quo.

Pros

No pros come to mind

Cons

Leaving this sales organization was the best decision I have made, both financially and emotionally. Sales reps are underpaid, taken advantage of, and gaslit by management into working unreasonable hours for a salary equivalent to minimum wage. The managers are all white men, with no representation from women or other backgrounds. Employees have also been told that only those who come into the office full time will be considered for promotions moving forward. HR from PayPal would be wise to look into how the sales organization is being run, if only due to the massive turnover it has seen in the last 9 months.
