Pros

Balanced Work and life, although depends on the team but the overall culture is really, they do care about you, giving you the freedom to take of yourself and your society together. The PP gives initiative is really great where PayPal matches the amount you donate to a noble cause of your choice. The tech stack and quality of work is up to date with the industry standards and you do get the freedom of trying new things and suggest better solutions. People are really helping here be it new hire training or any support regarding any internal product. You will definitely find a help slack channel for it. Overall as a professional you will grow well here. The leadership is also very supportive they host Ask Me Anything sessions also encourage questions during the All hands session to hear your voice and concerns and the best part is you can go anonymous.

Cons

As with everything there are cons as well. This is a part of our industry it seems, layoffs happen here as well, as the atmosphere is competitive, one has to keep learning and growing to be of value for the organization. However, it does help the person itself in overall growth and development.
