Pros

They have top notch benefits and pay.

Kontras

First, under no circumstances work here if you are in QA. You are not even a human being if you are in QA. The whole company looks down on QA as some sort of second class citizen that they want to get rid of as soon as possible and the executives will say it to your face if they don't know you're in QA. It's a bad place for development, too. They have a bunch of proprietary technologies they use and learning those is a gigantic waste of time. First, you're learning to use badly written code, poorly designed user interfaces, and tools sets that can only be described as antediluvian. It's madness. The technologies you are learning to work with are used by no other company in the world because it's proprietary. When I was there they had their own version of cloud services for internal use. It was terrible and you need to be using an industry standard platform like AWS or Azure if you want career growth outside eBay. It is a great place to be a manager. Managers are given a whole different level of treatment than regular employees and they generally don't get laid off in the rounds of layoffs that occur once or twice a year.

Pros

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.

Kontras

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
