      Pros

      Depending on the team, work/life balance can be fairly good.

      Cons

      Bureaucracy and politics - as in any other large company. You need to expect some resistance whenever you try to change any process. Things move slowly and you need to be very patience and very diplomatic. You need to be a great negotiator in order to get any brilliant idea you may have across. Promotions are granted as if you were in the military: it doesn't matter what you did - you need to patiently wait for your turn.

      Pros

      -easy to start and list items -cheaper shipping than retail -high demand items sell quick -make extra income

      Cons

      -customers / buyers that put in Cart but never buy. eBay does not survive on window shoppers and neither do I -low demand items can wait for years -need a ton of inventory, but high demand as possible, otherwise you will probably fail like me -buyer fraud - trying to get your items for free -competition where some sellers have items selling way under what you are selling for and they do not seem to care about profit at all based on how low the price is (ie: books) -buyers don't leave feedback especially if you are new, so it makes it really hard to get going -scammers but not a whole lot, definitely if you're new tho
