Pros

Great mission and brand. Nice work life balance, and compensation / benefits. New building and improved amenities. Free breakfast.

Cons

Left hand doesn't know what the right hand is doing. In marketing, some really solid, impact-driven Directors / Senior Directors left and that has created a void yet to be filled. Jury still out on NA executive leadership team. Morale is low.Severely rooted culture of mediocrity. New hires tend to drink the ebay koolaid and turn mediocre in no time.

There's a reason Amazon is better

Pros

Close to home, free food and I have a few friends here

Cons

The upper management is not transparent. They are very cliquish. The same executives have been here a while. They make all the decisions in closed-door meetings with very limited input from employees. Hence why eBay's stock is so low and Amazon's are so high the same people are making the wrong decisions. They have frequent organization changes moving the same people UP or Around. They have ideas and instead of taking accountability blame the employee. Employees can not give their opinion or they will be viewed as not being a team player. There's a reason Amazon is better. eBay is organized chaos. It looks a whole lot better from the outside.
