Please avoid TC or GTFO. Just want to know the perception of PP as a tech company! You can be brutally honest. Other top companies: Uber, Lyft, Airbnb, Oracle, MSFT Apologies if I missed out something.
Tier 3 eBay is tier 4
The whole imaginary “tier” rankings that people talk about in Blind are totally subjective and really don’t mean much of anything. That being said, on my personal tiered scale, I’d rank PayPal as tier 3.
+1 to @mrAmaze' response. I work at BofA in Tech, people here would call my situation Tier 10..but honestly my work is Tier 2 level most days and Tier 1 level some days. In my personal company tier scale, PayPal would be Tier 2.
tSWv17, there is a reason BofA is tier 10 is because it distorts your reality to what the tier is. When you say your work is Tier1 does that mean it's on par with FAANG? From what I hear of BofA and it's tech stack, it doesn't seem to match. Maybe it is but I'm genuinely curious to know.
I think Paypal is way better than Oracle
How can you include "Oracle" as a top company? Your sense of reality is severely distorted
Lol +1
I don't see apple or Google getting stadiums named after them Tier 1: Oracle, Chase, SAP, Levi's
It really depends on the group. In my group, most people graduated from top schools and end up working at FAANG after been here for 2-3 years. On the other hand, I used to come across some group that would be anywhere from tier 2 to 4. In term of business, I think we are doing well and we also acquired startups aggressively in the last couple of years. e.g. Venmo, iZettle, Jetlore, Simility etc.
Honestly it depends upon the pay scale. Folks here don’t give a dime about everything else. So pay scale wise look at levels.fyi you will figure out people’s opinion about Paypal. Everything else probably doesn’t matter.
There are legal limits on how innovative and disruptive one can be in finance. PayPal sold out to big banking when it got rid of its interest on deposits.
This was my tier list about a year ago. I should probably change things around Tier 0: Be your own boss Tier 1: Google, Facebook, Netflix Tier 2: Apple, Airbnb, Lyft, Uber, Square, Slack, Dropbox, LinkedIn, Nvidia, Robinhood Tier 3: Microsoft, Amazon, Yelp, Pinterest, Twitter, Salesforce, Zillow, Snapchat, Reddit, Spotify, Twitch Tier 4: Cisco, Oracle, Yahoo/Verizon, SAP, Intel, Adobe, IBM, Intuit, eBay, PayPal, Juniper Tier 5: Everything else
Cannot agree more on this list!
Tier 2/2.5 Can’t think of moving there.
Specifics please?
