Pros

Company feels like a startup but is backed by a big company, PayPal so you get the benefits of a big company but the feel of a small one.

Cons

In recent years team reorganization has left some confusion around teams and reporting structures. From a product point of view sometimes we were working on what seemed like similar product to things as PayPal but leadership had not given clarity or definition to each team's role in the product build and execution.
