Great company overall
Great company overall
Brand value, market leader in payments, smart folks overall. Consistent growth. The campus in San Jose is nice. Some groups have a good amount of fun.
Too many reorgs in the product area. Ex-eBay "leaders" are killing the culture of bottom-up innovation. Some key tech "gurus" prevent any kind of change in infrastructure.
Please hire good leadership talent. These ex-eBay guys, who used to address PayPal as "those guys" before the split, struck promotion deals and came over to make a quick buck after the split. They don't really care much for PayPal's success. Currently, they are all holed up in CPI, but they are starting to eye other groups now. I quit CPI as I was not valued by these guys, and it can happen in other groups as well.
