Pros

They aspire to what they have read in books. The people who wrote the books acknowledged years ago they were wrong. Now they have to trust B2B to fix their problems.

Cons

Inexperienced at the highest level. Patronizing. Over zealous and deeply critical of the shoulders their paychecks were created on. Many senior managers were let go from their prior jobs for being inept and toxic. Everybody deserves a second chance but given the stress levels I don’t think your letting the best get action in the game. Does PayPal actually know who they hired at very senior levels. This company tries to sponsor watered down educations to create a new age feudalism.

Great Company but beware of management

Pros

PayPal is a great company with a nice culture. I have been happy until management changed.

Cons

This is specific to my organization but the managers lack leadership and are micromanagers. There's also no work/life balance. A co-worker was super sick but was expected to come into work because there were deadlines to meet. If there was a true need for them to work at least allow them to work from home. What happened to keeping it human? There is also a lot of nepotism in this organization.

Pros

Benefits are great and they offer stock options after 6 months

Cons

Low Salary noted. Difficult to ever obtain a raise and really only lateral positions at the same salary are available. There is really no place to go to obtain a higher salary in this company and it's a billion dollar company. I was in a division who was trained to do 70% of another position and never received a salary increase. Supervisors are always in meetings.
