PayPal

Let’s start off with a name everyone is familiar with. PayPal allows any business or individual with an email address to securely, conveniently and cost-effectively send and receive payments online. Their impressive network builds on the existing financial infrastructure of bank accounts and credit cards to create a global, real-time payment solution. They deliver a product ideally suited for small businesses, online merchants, individuals, and others currently underserved by traditional payment mechanisms. The size of the PayPal network and widening acceptance of the product has helped them to become one of the leading payment networks for online auction websites. PayPal is also being increasingly used on other ecommerce sites for the sale of goods such as electronics and household items, the sale of services such as web design and travel, and the sale of digital content. Enough about the product, how are they as an employer? PayPal cultivates an environment that’s fun and rewards ingenuity, determination, and diverse perspectives. They respect and value uniqueness and diversity, regardless of background, level, or circumstances. PayPal takes care of their employees by providing generous health, wellness, and financial plans so they can feel secure about their own future while building the future of money. And if you fancy joining the PayPal family, we have good news. They’re on a hiring spree at the moment with countless exciting opportunities.
