Pros

Opportunities to work on products impacting lots of people. Many good coworkers. Good work/life balance, for the most part. There is a bus from San Francisco to the campus. Smart people that you will learn a lot from. Plenty of opportunity for movement within the company, between departments, companies, and countries. Salaries have become competitive over the last several years.

Cons

Politics, great disparity in terms of title/salary progression depending on the department you work in, very slow processes across all departments. The location is office park central, with nothing around. As is typical for eBay, salary adjustments are difficult to come by. The rank and file have very little faith in the senior management of the company (eBay inc.)

Pros

Money is decent, opportunities abundant, some very very good teams within the company. Given the deep recession we are in it is a decent place to work (it could be so much better though)

Cons

Some teams bad, use outdated techniques, infrastructure broken - right now a patchwork of bandages. unclear responsibilities and rewards. some teams frustratingly conservative. could be a lot better with better communication and recognition and clear incentives
