Pros

An Organisation that has a clear purpose, empowers ownership for work you are accountable for, driven, community orientated, deep seated culture and beliefs/values. Enables you to bring your whole self to work - you are who you are and eBay helps to bring out the best in you.

Cons

A lot of intensity, which is both awesome and challenging at the same time, sometimes.

Pros

Good benefits that start on day one. Sabbatical every 5 years. Work from home position. Pay is decent at $16.50/he with shift differentials. Working from home is a big plus. They send all necessary equipment.

Cons

Literally everything about the actual job. Went through a four part interview process for an entry level position which was not as described in the actual job posting or by the recruiter. I was actually pretty excited about working for eBay when I was hired and about 4 weeks into training. Trainers and coaches really try to sell eBay as the greatest company you could work for the first couple of weeks of training. Honestly started to feel a little culty, but you believe them and you feel excited until you realize the training is a joke and it doesn’t prepare you at all for the job. The amount of information that is thrown at you is overwhelming and you are expected to be an expert in all aspects of eBay. Was told everything changes frequently so don’t get too comfortable. Everyone in the training class felt ill-prepared prior to taking calls. The knowledge base is very difficult to navigate. Have to navigate through multiple programs while on a call while trying to understand the member’s issue within impossible time frames and metrics. Unless you actually buy and sell extensively on eBay and know about their policies beforehand, don’t apply. Or do and get paid for training and dip out.

Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review. We appreciate the feedback. The benefits here at eBay are excellent and we're glad you agree. We are sorry to hear, however, that you felt that training didn't prepare you for the job, and that you felt unprepared to take phone calls when you arrived on the call floor. We are constantly working to evolve the training to make it a world class type of experience. If you have additional feedback you think would help in that process, please send it to glassdoorfeedback@ebay.com.
