Pros

Coworkers are pleasant enough. Pay satisfactory. Nice campus. Convenient location. Managers tend to be a bit distant from lower-level workers, but not abusive; just aloof. Recent changes have seemed to confuse and dishearten some managers. Offers of better ways to get things done are usually listened to, but seldom acted upon. There are definite cliques of workers who have been employed for longer periods, but the individuals in the cliques are nice when they are operating solo. The pay is ok, and requests for time-off are never refused. All things considered, if I had not been riffed, I would have stayed at least another year.

Cons

EBAY gives no opportunity for customer service workers to actually "help" anybody. Knowing that customers are almost never staisfied with outcomes is demoralizing.

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.
