Avantages

I work for Paypal, a company owned by Ebay. Paypal has 70M+ active users and it is a challenge to keep the system up that works flawlessly. My main responsibility is to write software using C++ in Unix environment. With more than 6 years of experience in software development, I enjoy doing this and each day I learn something new. Sometimes new features of C++ which I put it in practice. Other times tackling live-issues and debugging code.

Inconvénients

Stressful at times, supporting opeartions till late night, complex code base, maintenance work. Paypal is too process driven company and sometimes it is just frustrating

Avantages

Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

Inconvénients

1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
