      Used to be great, now just okay.

      Pros

      Used to have great people, interesting products. However, the heady days of PayPal have started to fade, now that eBay has put its stamp. The products are still fairly interesting, but people have settled into a vest and rest mentality. Management has become scattered and left for greener pastures. PayPal is still the profit center of eBay and thus will always be decently well-resourced, but you can probably find more interesting internet and payment companies to work for.

      Cons

      More bureaucracy, slow product cycle, less impressive employees than the rockstars that used to work there. Still decent for a large internet company however.

      PayPal - What it would take to make this company great

      Pros

      The physical working environment is very pleasant, with decent benefits such as tennis courts, gym, fitness classes, and varied cuisine choices. The buildings are youthful and well decorated. Flexibility to work out of office exists, though it is difficult to obtain permission to do so. In general, employees are treated fairly based upon merit, rather than title. It is fairly easy to make a difference in the company if one so desires, because there are people willing to listen and support good ideas. The structure of the company's departments are reasonably well designed to help enable productivity through effective allocation of resources.

      Cons

      The cohesiveness between and within business units is very poor. There is little sense of camaraderie. There are few people who could be called inspirational, and little that motivates employees to go above and beyond. It is difficult to trust the direction of senior management, because that direction is rarely shared in sufficient detail. The biggest problem I perceive is a lack of effective communication within departments and between departments, or even between teams in departments. At the root of this issue is a lack of emphasis on the value of and motivations for supporting one's peers and the company's goals.
