      Great employer who has problems with consistency

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You get good benefits. You will receive stock in the company (at no cost), with an opportunity to purchase more stock. The ability to shadow many departments and acquire many new skills.

      Cons

      Constant flux. This applies to policies (attendance, stats), departmental structure, tools, and organizational structure. Unfocused corporate goals. Sometimes it is "being a customer champion". Sometimes it will be profit margin = success. You have to be careful trusting that what is said is what will happen.

      Needs to find its way, but lovely people

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      There are a lot of great people I've met at PayPal. The new CEO is doing a great job of creating focus, I hope it keeps up

      Cons

      Unfortunately, there's also a lot of churn and lack of processes or bad processes that make work hard to get done, or if it is done, it's meaningless almost instantaneously.
