eBay Employee Reviews about "good benefits"

Pros

Good benefits Good group of colleagues very effective training

Cons

Lack of transferable skills Leadership concerns growth opportunities are limited

Pros

Good benefits that start on day one. Sabbatical every 5 years. Work from home position. Pay is decent at $16.50/he with shift differentials. Working from home is a big plus. They send all necessary equipment.

Cons

Literally everything about the actual job. Went through a four part interview process for an entry level position which was not as described in the actual job posting or by the recruiter. I was actually pretty excited about working for eBay when I was hired and about 4 weeks into training. Trainers and coaches really try to sell eBay as the greatest company you could work for the first couple of weeks of training. Honestly started to feel a little culty, but you believe them and you feel excited until you realize the training is a joke and it doesn’t prepare you at all for the job. The amount of information that is thrown at you is overwhelming and you are expected to be an expert in all aspects of eBay. Was told everything changes frequently so don’t get too comfortable. Everyone in the training class felt ill-prepared prior to taking calls. The knowledge base is very difficult to navigate. Have to navigate through multiple programs while on a call while trying to understand the member’s issue within impossible time frames and metrics. Unless you actually buy and sell extensively on eBay and know about their policies beforehand, don’t apply. Or do and get paid for training and dip out.

Pros

Work remotely, advancement opportunities, good benefits.

Cons

Pay is not so good, too many roles with not enough pay, forced to move into another role even if you are unwilling to do so.

Pros

Good benefits that I miss now that I joined a crappy startup. Well defined tasks and it is kinda luck depends on the manager and team.

Cons

High dependence on the manager with no process in place to protect employees.

Pros

--I have recently joined eBay (4 months), it is a very good experience for me. --Very good benefits including health --Good management, open-minded, You need to self-manage yourself to figure out and get things done. This truly helped me to achieve many things in my short tenure. --All the management is very transparent about what they are looking from the employees. --Competitive pay

Cons

--There is no consistent process between the teams, the company is still working to maintain the same processes between the teams. This is truly an opportunity for employees to improve the process.

Pros

Good benefits and salary, and culture

Cons

None more than any other. Would be nice to have the work from anywhere option
