Pros

Payments, many companies seek payments experience. New management changed the culture of paypal from buerocratic to technology company. Good work life balance. Good cafeteria with multi cuisine options like indian dosa, naan and curry, chinese, sushi, mexican, american etc.

Cons

Developer productivity sucks. The development environments and application frameworks are customized to paypal, slow in adapting to latest technology trends, lot of legacy code and services. The landscape is changing but its still slow.

Pros

I had great flexibility with my job and schedule. Managers were fair and reasonable. There are plenty of resources to work with. Good pay, bonuses and benefits.

Cons

The company is so big that you end up feeling just like another statistic. People come and leave the door so quickly.
