Weak leadership

Pros

The Founder had great ideas, a vision for the future, and built a company that supported employees to enable them to do their jobs and encouraged innovation. Pay was adequate, low for Silicon Valley, but employee stock purchase opportunities and option grants were good, and sabbaticals were regularly scheduled.

Cons

As the company became more mature, the vision was lost, most of the new hires came fresh from Business School with a goal of resumé building. Rather than engage with the company, these employees looked to climbing the ladder up and out, and treated their jobs and co-workers as temporary, but aggressively sought recognition and remuneration.

Pros

Some good people to work with

Cons

AtThe company has taken every incentive that gsi commerce had for the employs.low pay top out at 14.50. EBay claims to be family oriented yet forces employs to work or 6 to 7 days a week for 4 months. No holidays of except Christmas day . Management constantly threatens the employs with wright ups or termination. Doctors notes do not excuse a absence they have a point system after 5 AMD a half points you are terminated. This is warehouse employment at its worst. I work a weekend shift that is suppose to be three day's a week 36 hours with four bonus hours eBay took the bonus hours and claimed that a pay increase would make up the difference but in reality I make 60 cents less a week that isn't that big of a issue the problem is that now we have to work straight time for 4 hours on our ot before we get into time and a half.now

Pros

Within each department (below senior management) are very tight knit teams and they treat each other like family.

Cons

- Senior Management only cares about saving costs, and will do anything including: cutting pay, giving very little pay promotions with job title promotions, making targets and goals too high so employees don't bonus - eBay also does not treat tenured employees very well. I have worked at the company for nearly 8 years and I am paid less than new hires I am currently training - There is no work life balance. Everyday is stressful and its hard to leave it at work, especially when people are emailing you and calling you after you get home. - Tons of empty promises! Lots of lies! - If you're going into politics this is a great place to get practice!
