Pros

a very high end corporate, very competitive. in order to do it, eBay invest a lot in their work force. it very noticeable from work life balance to reimbursement of tuitions and so on. eBay do know how to pamper it's worker is well!

Cons

it is a very big and global organisation, but I think a lot is being done to mitigate the physical distance.

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
