Need to stay late if you have a team meeting with people from different timezones.
Work on the weekend if you are in a different timezone, especially if you are in an Asian timezone while the PayPal release follows US time.
Bureaucracy.
Mostly start as a contractor, promised to get promoted in one year, but keep getting reasons to delay your conversion.
If you find contractors are expensive to begin with, you should not hire contractors in the first place. Even after deciding to hire only full-time employees, please consider the value that has been delivered by contractors during their tenure. Also, if you cannot fulfill your promise to convert in a specific time, don't promise it (maybe it did not come from PayPal directly, but please keep your "partners" under watch).

Extremely slow. Even after an interview goes very well and the manager gives positive feedback, they take months to move to the next step. Suddenly, process changes, and they want to do another round of interviews. Don't waste your time here.
The process included one written test, followed by two technical rounds and one manager round, all conducted on the same day. However, the interview process is based on performance in the written test.
