      Pros

      Competitive salary/ mac book. Stock is doing fine.

      Cons

      eBay search is run in a very disorganized fashion. They are developing new search engine which only few folks are allowed to touch. Rest of the engineers are not utilized properly and no one cares for the end product. Most of engineers have left the group and many are in process to leave the group. Managers lack technical expertise and are busy in playing politics and using one against other. This was not the case earlier. I will seriously advice you not to join the search group as this will be total waste of time.

      Pros

      Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

      Cons

      Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
