      Learn the business at eBay, but not a good place to work long term.

      Pros

      Working with leading edge technologies. eBay is a leader in the industry and trying hard to keep up with the competition. There is a lot of youthful energy at eBay that, if channelled correctly, would help push the company ahead. The facilities are unique and always kept neat. Even though it does not always include everyone, campus life is varied. Internal training is helpful and employees are encouraged to take advantage of it. For those who like structure, the Product Development Life Cycle PDLC is perfect for them. Serve the process, and management is happy with the way things are going.

      Cons

      All work with criticism but no praise. There is a strong tendency to add work without really checking to evaluate the load already on a person. Deadlines are imposed, not collaboratively developed. Management does not encourage employees to innovate. In fact, innovation is beaten back. The entire atmosphere is process driven--serve the process, but the process does not serve the organization. Does not seem to be much opportunity for advancement. Few people get promoted. Become good at the job you do and you will stay in it for months, even years. Pay does not seem to be competitive with similary types of companies.

      Compensation is an issue.

      Pros

      Great product. It's interesting and really should own retail.

      Cons

      Extremely competitive in terms of career advancement because there are a lot of good people and management doesn't seem to compensate anyone the way they feel they should be compensated.
