Pluspunten

Great benefits and an initial fun atmosphere. Coworkers are generally good caliber. Growth and advancement opportunities available. Nice new building which includes a nice cafeteria with reasonably priced and tasty offerings.

Minpunten

Management at all levels are too focused on share price and not on the employees or really even the clients that drive the most business. Product innovation came to a screeching halt and yet the expectation for 30% + growth was a metric given and used for performance evaluation. Focus is too buyer centric and buyer fraud abounds and is ignored. Sellers are left without common sense options to deal with dishonest buyers. News flash Pierre and Devin - People are No longer basically good when making online purchases. eBay employees including managers have No power to facilitate change or do the right thing for a seller that has been financially taken advantage of by a dishonest buyer. The policy makers are out of step with what really goes on with transactions. To be a powerless drone even at a management level is stressful, negative and unfulfilling. I didn't realize how truly bad it was until I stepped away from the eBay machine and kool-aid and looked in. I would Never go back to work for them.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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
