      Pros

      eBay has a group of very smart people working for them. If you end up in the right group you can have a real great time learning while you work. Work-life balance has improved over the years. The company also takes very good care of it's employees.

      Cons

      Even though Work-life balance has improved in the last few years, release cycles being too frequent causes work to be still hectic and it happens in cycles. Not enough time provided for each employee to invest in innovation. Too many changes and useless products being shipped to the site that increases the clutter.

      Pros

      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.

      Cons

      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
