Pros

eBay is one of the top global brands and it gives the opportunity to billions of people around the world to make a better life for themselves. The work environment is very collaborative and fast paced, your job is never boring!

Cons

eBay's internal structure is very chaotic with constantly shifting priorities. You need to be very flexible / adaptable to work at eBay. It takes some time (months) to be able to navigate that structure and establishing relationships is key to making things happen.
