Pros

Ebay has a great base of people, that are running the business. It has a very international and vibrant atmosphare with a lot of interaction between people, function, countries, etc. Through its global presence it gives a lot of oportunities to travel and talk to/meet with people from other countries. People have a vast knowledge of e-commerce and the online industry.

Cons

Management did not show a consistent strategy over the past years. It has been changed every year, most new initiatives or acquisitions have not at all be successful. It is sometimes hard to get information/knowledge about certain things/Projects. In general it feels a little over-managed.

Pros

Coworkers are pleasant enough. Pay satisfactory. Nice campus. Convenient location. Managers tend to be a bit distant from lower-level workers, but not abusive; just aloof. Recent changes have seemed to confuse and dishearten some managers. Offers of better ways to get things done are usually listened to, but seldom acted upon. There are definite cliques of workers who have been employed for longer periods, but the individuals in the cliques are nice when they are operating solo. The pay is ok, and requests for time-off are never refused. All things considered, if I had not been riffed, I would have stayed at least another year.

Cons

EBAY gives no opportunity for customer service workers to actually "help" anybody. Knowing that customers are almost never staisfied with outcomes is demoralizing.
