Pros
Generally fun group of people. Occasionally interesting work when the right questions were being asked. Good work / life balance; the floor is empty by 6:30 every evening. The company, brand, and value proposition have the potential to be something great.
Cons
Shopping.com is in that awkward space where it's too big to be truly innovative but too small to have any material impact on eBay's numbers. Everyone's busy but little gets done. The innovation-to-employee ratio was sub-standard. Too much time spent on PowerPoint slides vs. delivering value. Slow to embrace web 2.0 technologies or leveraging the community. Some of this sluggishness may have to do with the eBay mother ship. But if you want to be in a place that fosters and cherishes true innovation and risk taking, this is not the place. Standards are low. Slow or declining growth was too easily accepted. No real sense of urgency. Blatant problems with the site were easily dismissed as "well, that's just how it is." Take a look at the giant home page image that doesn't click to any products. Too much of the business model was reliant on keyword arbitrage. Very little organic traffic. Also, when I was there, the business units were very dis-jointed and even slightly competitive. They might as well operated as different companies. Very little cross-team collaboration or understanding what others were working on. Too much time was spent on post rationalization vs. moving forward created a somewhat defensive culture.
