Pros

- I learned a lot about web application programming. - The pay and benefits are pretty good.

Cons

1) PayPal's workforce is more than 70% Indian. Of course, this is not problem in itself. At PayPal, however, the Indians heavily favor their own. They get away with this because they control the place. As a result, if you're not Indian, you have no chance at a good rating or a promotion. If you *are* Indian, you have a cushy job for life. 2) PayPal stack ranks its entire workforce every 6 months. The result is intense competition among "teammates," with lots of backstabbing, politics, and court intrigue.
