Pros
eBay offers opportunity to the world that many other jobs don't. This is buffed by the way they appear socially when enabling global commerce. Working here is good and the pay, stock, health coverage, and additional benefits (like a full Month off of work after working 5 years) are wonderful.
Cons
A fair share of bureaucracy whenever attempting to run with a guise of empowerment. They like to allow you to be expressive and creative, but on a retractable dog leash.
Advice to Management
Trust the grass roots. They build your replacements.

Accepted OfferPositive ExperienceEasy IntervieweBay 2013-12-14 21:30 PSTApplication
I applied through other source. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at eBay (San Jose, CA).
Interview
I was hired by email, ICQ and one phone call. I was asked to submit a resumé. I didn't apply for the job. I came to their attention by posting on one of the chat boards and interacting with eBay users. I started out in SafeHarbor, the original fraud investigation unit. After two years, I was moved to Community Development.
Interview Questions
- Would I be willing to take the job, work from home on my computer. I worked "remote" for almost all of my over nine years of employment. 1 Answer
Negotiation
This was in 1997, when the company was very young, and I was just astonished to be asked to consider the job. It didn't occur to me to "negotiate." I worked for the company until April 2007 when I retired.
