Worst company I have ever worked for

Pros

Only if you are desperate and don't have other choice.

Cons

Wage, Benefits, Company status, Career Path, CSR is a really tiring job, stressful and frustrating. You are a number, not a person in this company. Management does not care about employee satisfaction. PayPal moves agents from department to department without considering the feelings of their employees. Leadership is strongly lacking, the management is clueless with clearly played favourites. People skills are a tick box exercise and people who can talk-the-talk are preferred over actual achievements. Terrible work-life balance unless your a favourite. The politics is all over the place and the company does not care about the customers either.

Pros

Good Team-mates and most people work hard and understand the importance of a strong work ethic. If you've the right boss then compensation and benefits are good. With the right boss you can go far very quickly.

Cons

Leadership is strongly lacking from Dublin team, with clearly played favourites. People skills are a tick box exercise and people who can talk-the-talk are preferred over actual achievements. Terrible work-life balance unless your a favourite.
