Pros

eBay is a recognizable employer (I've had plenty of jobs at companies that people would stare at blankly when I named them). Most of the people are intelligent. You get free bagel days and free beverages (San Jose campus only)

Cons

eBay has become too big and too corporate. There are too many incompetent people in senior management who don't know what eBay is all about (hint, it's not always about PowerPoint decks and ROI), lip service to the corporate values and mission statement. What happened to lead completely and practice judgment? Leadership seems to be blowing with the wind rather than setting course for the company to follow.

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.
