      Lots of great people, but bloated process and too much politics

      Pros

      work/life balance can be good (depends on the team) a lot of talented people some projects are genuinely interesting and contemporary (others may lag behind the industry by a few years or more)

      Cons

      eBay has been around for a long time, and it shows. Like in a geology class, when examining layers of rock, some of the code reads the same way. Lots of reinventing the wheel - e.g. you might spend a year on a project and then learn that another team did essentially the same thing. Politics... The cycles of over-hiring and layoffs are pretty demoralizing, both from a human standpoint and in terms of simply having a cohesive vision.
