eBay has become the worst place to work

Pros

It's a paycheck in these tough economic times, that's about all. But my co-workers and I only divulge that to each other at the bar afterhours

Cons

eBay used to be a great place to work but they laid off all of their best employees. That includes many very early employees who several of us loved working with. We relied on them to tell us what happened "back in the day" so we wouldn't repeat mistakes and could capitalize on what worked. Also, management makes so many moves and changes it's absolutlely crazy. They see change as necessary, while most employees see making unnecessary changes (both to the site and physically moving to a new location or having a new boss) as very disruptive and unnerving.

Pros

eBay still looks good on a resume. Just try not to roll your eyes when asked about your experience there at a job interview. There are also small pockets of good people that you will encounter that will help keep you sane. eBay has a really good benefits package, better than anywhere else I have worked.

Cons

Bad managment. Bad decision making. Nepotism. Cronyism. Soul-extraction by means of a contrived value system. Lack of respect for honest work. Its been years since I came to work smiling. Now I count every moment until I can leave. If you get a job at eBay be prepared to give all you have and expect nothing in return.
