Vantaggi
Don't work here. The offices are unpleasantly bland and there are no competitive benefits to speak of.
Svantaggi
This was a career misstep. This company doesn’t care about design and never will. The design team is constantly up against the ropes and playing catch-up while the "product" (very weird org structure when looked at closely) and business teams make decisions that will never put the customer first. I felt completely trapped there. It took forever to get out because of the reputation of eBay as a company. This is where a designer's career goes to die. It was demoralizing to watch every single good idea or good design that anyone came up with be pushed off to the side. “We don’t have the budget.” “It’s too unconventional.” “It’s too risky.” This company is too afraid to do anything meaningful and too afraid of having a perspective or an opinion to survive.
