If you're not Indian, do not take a job at PayPal
If you're not Indian, do not take a job at PayPal
- I learned a lot about web application programming.
- The pay and benefits are pretty good.
- PayPal's workforce is more than 70% Indian. Of course, this is not a 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.
- PayPal stack ranks its entire workforce every 6 months. The result is intense competition among "teammates," with lots of backstabbing, politics, and court intrigue.
Stop discriminating against non-Indian employees. It's bad business; it's also illegal.
