Pros

I work in eBay's Advertising business. Biggest pro for me joining this company has been the amazing culture across the company and in this business organization. People are very committed to collaboration and partnership, helping each other succeed in our mission to delivering great experiences to our buyers and sellers. Management has been great. Compensation is very competitive. The work environment if you live close to an office is hybrid. There is a very good vibe coming into the office, seeing coworkers and making unexpected connections. I personally see a really good effort toward hiring a diverse workforce and am super proud of being part of such a company.

Cons

The hiring process took a bit longer than I had hoped. At the same time, I understand that the business wanted to take the care to make sure that they are hiring the right people. I appreciate and respect that. For me, the rationale for this was shared with me and I really appreciated the transparency.

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
