      Approves of CEO

      I have been working at PayPal full-time for more than 3 years

      Pros

      Healthcare, internal opportunities, yearly pay increase in line with performance, subsidized canteen, free parking, quarterly team night out, quarterly team lunch, pension scheme, stock plan, quarterly bonus,

      Cons

      Takes a long time to get to where you want to go. Other less qualified people tend to move up the ladder due to their ability to say yes to everything and suck up when actual quality work gets over looked. Serious political atmosphere from the higher ups. If your in the bad books of a manager then your going to have a really tough time getting a move or furthering your career regardless if it is warranted.

      Advice to Management

      See through the people who do sub par work, are compulsive liars and just say yes to things they do not deliver on. Put focus into a clear career path for the people you want to retain and the quality of work that the whole business benefits from will increase.
