Pros

eBay quickly lost credibility in 2008 as it's very clear the company is only trying to become the worlds largest fixed price flea market from hell. When was the last time anyone ever talked about the fun eBay we knew for years. Does anyone read email from our members anymore? Has any Senior Management ever called anonymously to the eBay support teams and talked to our brilliant inexperienced team members from Mumbai. Customer Support is in a downward spiral trying to run a call center that is broken at every angle from nobody knowing how to address customers properly to technology that don't work

Cons

Data that really doesn't tell the story of the community only what will help a high score on the Quarterly IPPR. No indepdent review of quality of the work or the benefits to the customer. Waste of money, time, and projects that make no sense in a true turnaround. Our Community team has been eliminated and now your expert to help you is from Mumbai with no feedback and no computer and only knows eBay as a paycheck

Pros

Sorry, But I cannot really think of anything very positive to say here. Ebay WAS a great company. Absolutely revolutionary. It literally changed the way the world did business by providing a truly level venue for the free market to operate worldwide. However, the fun friendly spirit of ebay is dead. It is a corporate zombie hell.

Cons

Company has lost any sense of what the original ebay community represented. The company has completely lost its vision. The community values that made ebay a fun, friendly, vibrant community are gone, replaced by greed and corporatism. Business schools will study ebay as a model of failure.

Pros

Lots of challenges; technology solutions driven by business objectives; quarterly goals oriented work culture; gold mine of internet technology problems for the ones who are in the solution business.

Cons

Promotions are sometimes not consistent with performance, results, potential and contribution to the company. concerns on too many projects with lack of strategic coherence.
