Pros

Free lunch, PayPal ESPP program

Cons

People all think they're the best programmers around and that their way of doing things is the only way to do things. Can't discuss differences, must conform.

Pros

Since Venmo's parent company is PayPal, you have all the benefits of a Fortune 500 company. Was provided with great dental and eye care, PPO plus plan options, 401 (k), and other great benefits like assistance with child care, adoption, and financial coaching to name a few.

Cons

When starting at Venmo, it was a different company and the people interviewing were going off how the startup had been ran for years - flexible time off, daily lunch and snacks, fun working environment, and endless opportunities for career advancement. During my time there, the company was transitioning and adapted to a corporate model, take more and give less. Very soon after being hired, it was clear that there was no career development plans or mentorships. Being promoted within was almost impossible. Since the Chicago office transitioned into WFH, the little culture there was, dissolved. The senior managers, director, VP do nothing to aide the disconnect between departments and teams. There is very little cohesiveness between departments which causes friction and limited solutions for merchants and users.
