Pros
There are several Pros that PayPal has to offer. They're global and can provide a lot of experience in the Fintech industry especially since PayPal offers crypto now. PayPal offers a fantastic work-life balance. PayPal also cares about your mental and physical wellness. This is a priority to them and they let you know they care. Advancement opportunities are readily available. Sometimes you will have to move laterally before you move vertically, but as long as you know what you want, and are preparing yourself for it, doors will open. PayPal offers stock options and allows you to purchase stock at a 15% discount per each paycheck. They also give you stock options at the end of the year as a bonus based on performance. PayPal keeps growing and has no intention to stop. Its variety in offering payment solutions for the underbanked is truly amazing and limitless. Lastly, but not least, after 5 years of service, PayPal will give you a 30-day paid sabbatical for you to enjoy and will do this every 5 years you work there.
Cons
Cons ... as long as you have a growth mindset, there are no cons. You will get feedback about your performance and if you do not like it, it may bother you. But of course, as long as you are staying responsible and accountable for your work, then it should all be good. A con for me is that at the end of the day, its a job. I have to constantly remind myself that I should be thankful for all of the amazing things this job offers. For many, it has turned into a career.
