PayPal Employee Reviews for Business Development Manager

A typical day at PayPal would entail making 30 cold calls, and managing leads, opportunities and pipeline to meet KPI's set by the business. I learned to do market research of websites and businesses using the appropriate online tools I learned how to manage compliance of PayPal accounts to adhere with our Financial services guidelines I learned how to use and manage shopping carts and website back ends and apply the necessary coding to allow for payments to take place I learned how to navigate business management solutions such as Xero, Kounta, Revel, MYOB, imPOS, Micros just to name a few and apply PayPal as a tender PayPal has a flat management structure which allowed for a comfortable and relaxed working environment The hardest part of the job was keeping up with the demands of our clients and capitalising that demand The most enjoyable part of working at PayPal was the culture, the desire to succeeds as a business the perks that came along with it

Pros

Tuesday lunch, Wednesday Massages and Sunshine Fridays (3pm finishes)

There is limited advancement opportunities. The company and my organization had weak leadership based on nepotism and favoritism. There are better places to seek employment.

Merchant/ client focus to promote payments as a secure and faster way. Knowledge obtained in the online and offline space with penetration into multiple vertical industries. Upper management expectations of clear vision of increasing revenue and merchant acquisition as main goal and to satisfy new and existing clients through innovation concept. Overall a fast pace and challenging workforce but never forgetting it's assets (it's employees.)

Great Atmosphere, fantastic place to work

Business Development UK & Ireland (Current Employee) - Dublin - April 11, 2013

Typically I start my day an hour early and get my prospecting done through social media sites and newspapers and magazines. I always pre p;an my day and my calls for the day. I work with fantastic team mates that are always on hand to help my customers have a great buying experience. The hardest part of my job is having tried everything to satisfy a customer and still not make them happy. The most rewarding part of my day is when I help a team mate reach his/ her objectives and also when I get a qualified referal from a happy customer.
