Vantaggi

Good compensation. Well known company that enables small business

Svantaggi

Leadership sees marketing as a necessary evil. Only believe in marketing they can exactly and precisely measure. Still believe that "if you build it, they will come" which is appropriate for a start-up, but eBay is far from a start up. Zero belief in upper funnel marketing to maintain awareness and consideration. They give the title of General Manager like candy, but the definition of a general manager includes having full P&L responsibility. NO ONE is given that responsibility until you ge t the VP level.Definitely, categorically NOT the place to go for general management training/experience.

Vantaggi

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.

Svantaggi

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
