Pays well, but your career stops progressing

Pros

ebay pays well and at a certain level you get a lot of stock.

Cons

Your career comes to a screeching halt. Many many people languish at the same level for years. Not because their performance is poor, ebay just doesn't believe in promoting people as a corporate philosophy. You have to reinvent the wheel or be the favorite of a Sr. Dir or VP. ROI is only relevant in the first case. Also, they will often move people to new roles after a short time (which indicates a lack of clear strategy) and then you are told you have only been in the role for a short while, so you aren't ready. Turnover in certain areas is 80%.

Pros

eBay is investing in the future and is a place you can really make a difference in whatever tour role. You really feel like you are making a difference by enabling connected commerce in all corners of the world. It's also a fun place to work and there are so many talented and friendly people. It's also a place no matter what your age, ethnicity or background that you feel respected. We need to continue to increase our diversity because it will only help us to better understand our richly diverse customer base. I love working at eBay as they are a company that is serious about creating an amazing place to work.

Cons

The buildings are all being renovated and it's quite noisy campus right now. It will be beautiful but it's not great right now. Get the cafeteria done ASAP!

Way to much corporate politics. Doesn't run like a typical bay area engineering company.
