Pros

Benefits - Relaxed dress code - Range of schedules and various types of jobs - Some amazing people. Great business model, easy to see the vision and get behind it. Great experience for college students.

Cons

Clique-Atmosphere; it's not necessarily what you know but who you know. Little flexibility, micro-management atmosphere. Production-Stats driven, little-to-no room for common sense or exceptions.

Pros

PayPal is truly the leading online global payments platform, and as such there is no shortage of interesting projects and great challenges to work on. This also attracts a fair share of smart and interesting people. Also, a lot of positive changes in the David Marcus and Dan Schulman era, with the company becoming more innovative, customer focused and agile.

Cons

The downside of the large opportunity is lack of focus. The company is always pursuing one shiny object or another and in recent years took its eyes off the ball a bit in terms of the core business.
