      Honest Review About Poor Leadership

      Pros

      Free Gym. Free sodas. Bagel Wednesdays. There are foosball tables, ping pong tables, boccie ball court etc but it's in the middle of 4 tall buildings and no one plays.

      Cons

      First of all, I am quite amazed about how accurate some of these reviews are. I'd like to confirm these reviews as most of it its the honest truth. Promotions are given out unfairly. Lots of favoritism. Hard work is not rewarded. So much secrecy around promotions. No open communication. Horrible work conditions. Senior managers definitely don't know how to lead or motivate their employees. Senior managers only out for themselves and only manage upwards. Pay is not competitive and up to par with industry standards.

      We Have Let Down The Small Sellers Who Depended On eBay For Their Living

      Pros

      Used to be a righteous cause but not so much anymore...it was great to help out all of the sellers who made their living off the site.

      Cons

      Current senior management team doesn't have a clue what they are doing.... they will have little choice but to break the company into pieces and sell to the highest bidder (oh, the irony of it all). What's the Board doing all this time????

      Pros

      eBay used to be an exciting place to work, with a large community feel. We were all growing together, as a large family would.

      Cons

      Turmoil abounds, no job security. There are no longer smiles on people's faces. Stress has taken over. The environment is secretive, untrusting, everyone is looking over his/her shoulder, waiting for the ax to fall. Now, with the frontline cut, management will have even less connection to its customers. Top management is the blind leading the blind.
