Pros

There are wonderful people to work with around the company. The sabbatical program is of course a plus (after having worked there 5 years). I found a lot of opportunities for advancement and learned a lot during my time there.

Cons

After a number of promotions and over 10 years of working there, I barely got a pat on the back when I left. I went in and felt like a contributor that mattered for a number of years and left feeling like a number.

Pros

Good benefits with nice pay. The company also offers many small perks that include activities with family and provide a good number of training courses. HQ is located near Los Gatos trail that provides nice walks.

Cons

Constant changes with no clear direction. Most people are suck up and often fictionalize stories to please others to make their way up the chain. Most often you'll find people backstabbing each others which is truly unethical. No work life balance with terrible management. Often time promoting people that suck the blood out of the company and over work good employees with no reward.

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!
