Payments is not "real" eBay

Pros

- Great mission - High impact work - Decent compensation, though not inline with FAANG

Cons

- Autocratic payments leadership, tends to micromanage everything - Payments leadership never takes blame for anything but always looks for people to blame, both within and outside of payments - extremely frustrating - Inability to make a decision and stick with it. Decisions are constantly revisited causing teams tremendous churn - Payments leadership team says the right things to employees, but doesn't act accordingly (e.g., WLB has been in the toilet for 2 years, yet all we get is a no meetings day - that is actually filled with meetings - once a month? PayPal does proper days off once a month)

Pros

Benefits are nice and pay is great

Cons

Training was lacking and chaotic. The job is also very high stress and we're suppose to spend our own time, off the clock, every day, setting up our at home work station, tools, and stay on top of emails. eBay claims to be "people centric", but that has not been my experience. I feel more neglected and rushed to take as many calls as quickly as possible.
