Working at PayPal is okayish. Work was challenging. Did the best I could. A lot of things depends on your team. The team that I work is bad. So, my overall experience turned really bad.

Salary - Good

Dislikes

Long working hours. Everything depends on team and managers. No good projects in my team. Very little innovation. Manager take credit of others work. Director and Management is useless. They have just been in PayPal for ages and have settled here. Absolutely no work satisfaction for me.
