Thank you for sharing your thoughts and we are glad to hear that you saw our teams working with cutting edge technologies and building great products. eBay has come a long way since our split with PayPal last summer, and it has been a priority of our leadership team to keep all employees informed of our priority roadmap. We are really excited for our future!
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
