      Still a very successful company that needs to prove it can adapt to be an enduringly great company.

      Pros

      eBay is full of very smart people who are stimulating and fun to work with. The business model, despite any recent criticism, is still one of the best to emerge in a generation.

      Cons

      The company is in the early stages of a transformation. It's not always clear what we're trying to transform into, and thus it's hard to know if we have the right people to lead through all the changes ahead. Also, a company full of consultants can lead to lots of great strategic thinking, but without robust executional passion and skills, especially as it relates to product.

      Pros

      Great Place to Learn. Ample oppurtunities. In other companies, people talk about building software which scales to 100s of thousands of users. At eBay you are exposed to an environment which has 100s of millions of users. A totally different level of scale.

      Cons

      A but chaotic at times. Management is "raw". There is general reluctance in the leadership to take hard decisions and act on it.

      Good to have on your resume. But not a place to work after 2 or 3 years.

      Pros

      To get the experience of working on a highly scalable architecture. Learn about processes, ability to multitask, work with different functional and development teams, collobrate.

      Cons

      Very stressful environment due to multitasking and too many releases. Very thin opportunites for growth inspite of putting lot of hard work. Verd bad medical and other perks. No constant motivation or financial rewards for people who work very hard and make a difference. Recently to many mangement changes and politics.
