      Donahoe is single-handedly driving eBay into the ground.

      Pros

      There used to be many and now there are only a few.

      Cons

      Constant changes that make absolutely no sense by senior management. Hard to watch a couple of out-of-touch executives run this company into the ground. It's like watching a train wreck in slow motion. Unethical business practices, including padding the number of listings to manipulate the numbers for stockholders. Unfair practices with the sellers, who actually put eBay where it is today and thanks to Mr. Donahoe, they are leaving the site in droves to do business with our competitors. Donahoe prefers to spend billions to buy miscellaneous companies and lay-off thousands of dedicated and qualified employees. What gives?

      Provide direction, listen to the front line staff and keep employees in their role longer than a month!

      Pros

      The image and respect of the company. The people that work there. The sense of team work. The expand of the company; travelling to other countries. The opportunities that use to exist. The pay and compensation, the ability to expense dinner's and enjoy each other's company. The sense of working on something unique where you have input into the companies future. Different industry within the local area and is not a telecom industry. Something I once believed in and really wanted to come into work each day. Once Meg left it all went downhill from there. Very sad to see something you believed in go downhill.

      Cons

      Promotions are not equitable. People are just assigned to roles instead of applying. No direction at all from senior management and they have brought in incompetent leaders who are new to the industry and do not know what they are talking about and are not really intrested in you, your skills or where the department has come from. Just there own thoughts on where it should go.

      Good people, but leadership has no vision

      Pros

      You get to work with smart people who really do care about doing the right thing. If you find the right team, there are good career opportunities.

      Cons

      Top management has no long term focus or vision. The repeated changes in strategy mean that you never know if the project you're working on is going to be completed. One month your project is top priority and everyone is putting in long, firedrill hours. The next month the project is canceled. The month after that it's back on again.
