High growth. For now
A high-growth business that could do great things. PayPal can do a lot and can be a market leader. The potential is there. The payments opportunities for PayPal are really huge and still relatively untapped. The compensation packages are pretty good. The management wants to do right by its people.
They don't care about doing good engineering.
We have a bloated engineering organization that hires warm bodies. There is no focus on creating a solid product.
Everything is turf war and political, with most decisions being based on what extends empires, not what is the right thing to do.
Think about the future and invest in the right areas. There is disproportionate spending in areas that don't solve today's problems. Everyone understands the problems, but the wrong areas get the investment. The problem right now is not business, but rather technological. Centralize the decision-making; decentralization was the worst thing that happened in the last 3-4 years.
