Pros

The work life balance is really good and from a financial perspective they take really good care of their employees. The people who work here are really smart and fun to be around. The work environment is suppose to be fun and has been for many years but seems like with the new leadership and all of the changes that may be going away.

Cons

I think that growth opportunities would be the biggest downside of working for eBay. All of the changes that are taking place with the new leadership team has created an environment of confusion and has others thinking that this is not the place for them.

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
