Pros

Company has some great people and some nice perks as as well as (seemingly) laid back culture

Cons

* Management is incredibly short term focused (e.g. tricking existing Plus members into forgetting to cancel their renewal) and seem sto have no long term plan * Upper-management does not bother to share even with mid-level management their true plans * Company isn't doing well thanks to Amazon etc

Pros

Salary, benefits, location, flex-time, pto

Cons

Politics! Remote offices 2nd class. Attitude of management/leadership is if you're not from Silicon Valley you're not smart or talented enough . This means no realistic career path. Poor management is rewarded.

Pros

Friendly teammates Benefits Honestly nothing else other than the above^

Cons

Team Leaders are micro managing a lot, no freedom, every second of your activity is recorded and have the head ate off you if you're in the bathroom longer than 10 mins per day, They lure you in with the illusion of empowerment and freedom when really it's a trap. HR are extremely un-lenient sick days are not tolerated and you'll be threatened with multiple phone calls while you're out. leaving eBay was the best decision I've made in years, now at a company who appreciates my hard work and dedication and understands I am human! Also the two offices are too far apart
