Pros
Overall the benefits are pretty decent and there is a parking garage. If you get to work early enough you can keep your car out of the blistering sun. If you play the game right, there are opportunities for advancement.
Cons
PayPal is horribly managed. Often promotions are handed out based on politics and if management likes you, not based on merit. This causes people to be in places they shouldn't be. The office is very political and if you don't play the game properly you're out. I have worked in several different departments and it's pretty consistent amongst them all. The Directors have no idea what they're doing and decisions are often made without taking the teammate into consideration. PayPal likes to boast how they're they number 1 place to work. What they don't tell you is that they coerced the employees into taking the Phoenix Business Journal survey and threatened that if they didn't get number 1 they'd not complete some of the requests made by employees. That's why if you look at any other ranking site, PayPal is nowhere to be found. The pay is also terrible and unequal as it is based on politics and not merit. Management also has no idea what employees are doing what for the team. Hard work, dedication, and passion are often overlooked and not taken into consideration with reviews. PayPai is a disorganized mess and is moving backwards as there is no real leadership. Their attrition rate is very high as they do not pay employees enough to deal with the upset customers and shotty software used. I do not recommend this as a place to work.
