Pros

It's a paycheck which I suppose is good.....

Cons

they offer paid time off but never make it available, the shifts are awful and there is never any room for change.

Pros

The people. eBay really does hire some great people with great ideas, they just don't necessarily have influence to change anything. They do try to make it a fun environment with rewards and recognition as well, and employees do have the chance to voice issues to leadership.

Cons

The culture has completely changed over the last year. It's feeling much more corporate. Executives seem to be outright disregarding who we once were, and pursuing some new brand image that doesn't work and doesn't fit, yet they won't even fully admit that this is their goal. On the one hand, they say they still care about the small businesses and sellers that made eBay what it is today but on the other, every action they are taking says otherwise. We have totally alienated our customers. We are offering a platform that is complex with rules and polices that don't make sense. With the economy the way it is today, people should be flocking to eBay to sell their used goods and items and instead we've driven them away. Ideas aren't listened to by management; it takes an incredible amount of time to get anything done and by the time anything is implemented we're off onto the new flavor of the week.

Pros

The people are the best thing about working at eBay. The second best thing about working at eBay is the community.

Cons

The main downside for working at eBay is the pace of work. There are many times during the year when the volume of work is unrealistic.
