      Reactive and poor decision making - Anonymous employee eBay Employee Review

      Pros

      Good pay & benefits, location near campbell is nice, close to lots of restaurants in Pruneyard

      Cons

      Too many org changes means a lot of start, stop, restart, continue... doesn't make for good decision making, frustrating working in such an environment but not sure if it's the nature of the business. I think not... can't impact or implement change because have to keep starting over with a new manager or roadmap every 3-4 months.

      Pros

      It is equivalent to winning the lottery for a dream job.

      Cons

      Sunday work can be challenging- due to daycare challenges, but ebay supports work/life balance so its not really a con

      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.

      Cons

      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
