Pros

Healthy benefits are good and they start right away. That's a good thing because most employees get serious anxiety from working here so half the company needs the FMLA

Cons

Yes PayPal was voted "best place to work" but that was in 2014. A lot has changed as we enter 2016. The moral has changed. The vibe sucks and no one seems happy anymore. They started hiring anyone just to have a warm body in a seat. With that came ghetto people, lazy people and people who dress completely sloppy and basically in their pajamas. You can't bring your lunch because it will just get stolen from the fridges. And the food available to buy is overpriced. And no one will do anything about lunches being stolen daily. Who steals someone's entire lunch from the fridge or freezer?? And what management just looks the other way about it?? People gossip here including the upper management. Out of ALL the departments here, maybe 2 of them are worth it. All other depts "CS, disputes, fraud" they are all stressful and underpaid.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
