Pros

Your work changes peopels lives - people use eBay to do real things... not a fluffy web 2.0 fake idea. This is real people buying and selling real things and you've got to fix real problems. Millions of transactions a day make this a very interesting place to work.

Cons

Missed the boat a few years back on how the market was changing - did not make the right changes in the business and now company is paying the price and has a hard time trying to adjust things. Morale is probably down these days because of that.

Pros

Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

Cons

Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
