Pros

PayPal offers the best benefits and pay for a job that does not necessarily require a degree in the Omaha metro area. Each paycheck we get approximately 5 hours of PTO, benefits start from the day you are hired. After 5 years working there you get a one month paid sabbatical in addition to PTO every paycheck. PayPal offers a variety of work schedules, including 12 hour SSM shifts that rock my socks! It's feels like working a part time job with full time pay! The work itself is enjoyable and most of the customers are very pleasant and friendly.

Cons

Requesting days to use PTO can only be done within 90 days from the date that you need off. Must have PTO to take days off.

Pros

1. Upward Feedback - you get to anonymously rate your immediate supervisor 2. They really mean it when they tell you there are advancement opportunities - almost everyone in our department was promoted to their position from within the company 3. Benefits start the first day of employment - no 90-day waiting period that is so common for the industry

Cons

1. Layers of management / approvals can make it hard to accomplish anything - we know how to do our jobs, now just get your noses out of Operations and let us mitigate risk!

Lack of vision and proper execution on management's part. Too many turf wars The technology stack is just outdated making upgrades and new features almost impossible
