Fun but short on promises
Sr. DevOps Engineer (Former Employee) - Remote - January 25, 2023
Indeed Featured review
The most useful review selected by IndeedToo much Traveling, short on bonuses, pto can be improved. Was promised team leader or principal, didn't happen. Always met deadlines, always a team player. Performance doesn't mean a thing... they'll promote seniority over Performance all the time.

Nice Place to Work
Credit Solutions Agent (Former Employee) - Chandler, AZ - January 16, 2023
I got hired in to the credit solutions department (call center) out of high school. There was a 2 month training period that was taken in a class room then transitioned into sit along until we were put into our own teams and officially worked on the floor. The training was

DNA Analyst (Former Employee) - dna - January 8, 2023
In my experience working their I have seen 3 major layoffs out sourcing of Jobs. High turnover for management. They non supportive of people that have been their for a long time. It is hard to move up. It hard to get a raise.
Pros

Grateful I’m not tortured anymore but it’s still not great
Account Executive (Current Employee) - Conshohocken, PA - January 6, 2023
Not a lot of room for upward mobility and HR is completely nonexistent. We have a website where you can submit a an HR ticket but don’t expect to hear anything back. Crazy to think I work for a Fortune 100 company……That aside, I will say things have gotten way better in my department since being remote. Work life balance is good whereas before, 9am-9pm shifts were not uncommon for me. We would be pressured to stay late and shamed for leaving our desks to take breaks. Coworkers were encouraged to steal leads in the 5 mins we were gone. Management is all in all down to earth now. Our last last channel manager wrestled my coworker in the office but I won’t get into that…..It still has a bit of favoritism in terms of promotion and because the job is so repetitive it’s easy to feel stuck. The base is god awful but the commission structure sort of makes up for it.

Great Colleagues
HR Operations Specialist (Former Employee) - Texas - December 22, 2022
Great culture and the brightest colleagues. Loved my job, but if you don’t negotiate a higher pay rate when you start you will struggle to get decent raises even with superior ratings.

Be sure you make friends and advocate for yourself every day
Content Writer (Former Employee) - San Jose, CA - December 14, 2022
The merchant side is more boring and there’s only one good manager. The consumer side has a ton of good managers and I met a lot of coworkers that loved working over there.

4 stars
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) - Chandler, AZ - December 1, 2022
What is the best part of working at the company? Amazing health benefits, they really take care of you. Only down side is if you're conservative, keep your mouth shut very liberal environment. What is the most stressful part about working at the company? Only hitting your numbers, mostly was only an issue when working from home. What is the work environment and culture like at the company? Again very upbeat positive environment, again of you're conservative keep it to yourself. What is a typical day like for you at the company? Disputes is the best department, but you will be forced to work all departments. They will tell you they won't make you, when you get your offer. That has changed for sure, so they might not say that anymore.

Jobs at PayPal
Productive , fun, but cut throat and political.
Team Leader (Former Employee) - La Vista, NE - November 15, 2022
Great company and enjoyed many positions that I worked in. Entry level expectations are easy to accomplish but lowest producer will always be let go. Team Leader and above will at some point be laid off. That’s what PayPal does. If you stay in one position for too long, you will be laid off. Women have a priority with promotions.

Not great, not terrible.
Customer Solutions Specialist (Former Employee) - Chandler, AZ - November 15, 2022
Your average customer service kind of job. On the phones all day with some bad calls and some okay calls. Great cafeteria, cheap drinks in soda machines, and free coffee. Definitely some perks to make you think it’s all worthwhile.

Miserable most of the time
Phone Representative (Current Employee) - Omaha, NE - November 14, 2022
The job itself is not very rewarding. Most calls you get are from angry customers. You have to interview 4/5 times just to get promoted to a different position. When they do train you in new departments, there is no pay raise. The only good part is the people you work with and the bonuses at the end of the year. Also you can work from home which is nice.

Nice Internship Experience

Work from home was flexible. Quite a bit of bureaucracy at times so project progress was slow at first, but makes sense for what it was. Overall decent SWE Internship.
Pros
Work From Home
Cons
Bureaucracy Sometimes

Handling customers who do not understand what Government Sanctions on banking is and where to place the blame when violations occur on an account or transactions and if we do not comply with government policy we would be shut down.

Nothing but a Number
Compliance Analyst (Former Employee) - La Vista, NE - October 29, 2022
You are nothing but a warm body in a chair, completing casework through a queue system. There is no thinking outside of the box and no creativity. You are completely judged on your production...because again you are just a warm body that's there to produce

PayPal is cool
Team Leader (Former Employee) - Chandler, AZ - October 28, 2022
Their CEO is tanking the place but the people are so dope. Just have to make sure you get your production done and it is remote so it works out. Not a bad place to work for

Customer service rep
Customer Service Representative (Former Employee) - Silicon Valley, CA - October 26, 2022
I feel like they do not equip me to handle customers well. They are often frustrated with me. Partially because this company offers terrible service.

Amazing place to work
Customer Solutions Team Leader (Current Employee) - Chandler, AZ - October 19, 2022
Started here as a CSR and have stayed for 10 years. Great place to work, incredible benefits, really positive and inclusive culture. Most of what I’d have to say about PayPal is positive, however the one negative I can point to is the constant change, if you are someone that doesn’t like change this isn’t the place for you. Systems, tools, processes and procedures are constantly being tweaked and changed so if you can handle change this is your place.
Pros
Benefits, culture, and flexibility
Cons
Constant change
