Avantages

It's a paycheck in these tough economic times, that's about all. But my co-workers and I only divulge that to each other at the bar afterhours

Inconvénients

eBay used to be a great place to work but they laid off all of their best employees. That includes many very early employees who several of us loved working with. We relied on them to tell us what happened "back in the day" so we wouldn't repeat mistakes and could capitalize on what worked. Also, management makes so many moves and changes it's absolutlely crazy. They see change as necessary, while most employees see making unnecessary changes (both to the site and physically moving to a new location or having a new boss) as very disruptive and unnerving.

Avantages

Relaxing culture. family first. Stock performance is generally good for the recent two years and huge benefit if you're eligible for ESPP. Stable product with large customer base means you get opportunity to work on project with real impact.

Inconvénients

1. Blind push for AI and leadership expect unrealistic efficiency improvement 2. Layoff every year in Feb (2024, 2025, 2026) and sometimes can feel the tension in team 3. Legacy tech stack with isolated and fragile infrastructure. Developer friction is a real pain. You get random infra down every once a while and internal support becomes even worse since they started offshoring to LCOL area in 2025. 4. Hiring freeze in San Jose... just expect more layoff coming up + frequent meetings at night / early morning across regions
