Pros

Within each department (below senior management) are very tight knit teams and they treat each other like family.

Cons

- Senior Management only cares about saving costs, and will do anything including: cutting pay, giving very little pay promotions with job title promotions, making targets and goals too high so employees don't bonus - eBay also does not treat tenured employees very well. I have worked at the company for nearly 8 years and I am paid less than new hires I am currently training - There is no work life balance. Everyday is stressful and its hard to leave it at work, especially when people are emailing you and calling you after you get home. - Tons of empty promises! Lots of lies! - If you're going into politics this is a great place to get practice!

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.
