Thank you so much for sharing your feedback. The new eBay leadership team put in place after the PayPal split has been focused on creating a dynamic culture for our company and their hard work has really made a difference. It is great to hear that it is getting noticed, and is appreciated, by employees like yourself.
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.
Kontras
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
