Pros

Good pay, decent benefits, free drinks always provided, able to work independently, lap top and cell phone provided, staff was very courteous and hard working.

Cons

Communication was more important than results. Management would rarely listen to ideas. Paypal would receive far more benefits then eBay employees, although the two groups were often merged.

Pros

Dynamic, changing and intense teamwork. Lots of employee events after work and on weekends. Reasonable raises for a few. Management open to suggestions and having employees create project plans and deliver. 4x10hour shifts generally available for a 4 day work week. RRSP 4%. Stock options or RSU's for additional bonus. Profit sharing ~6% for most, at least in the earlier years.

Cons

Metrics are a hurdle for some. Quality constantly measured and evaluated.. fair but invasive at times. International coverage requires some pretty strange shifts. 4am-12 noon. 6pm-2am. 10pm-6am. Ongoing challenge from other employees to retain your preferred shift days off/times and risk getting bumped to an confused work schedule. Especially true when parents are forced into working graveyards or 4am shifts.
