Pros
Pros Generally regarded within ebay as one of the better teams to work for. Good equipment.
Kontras
Lack of quality projects to work on. Need to brown nose the architects in order to work on anything significant. Management is new to the company and runs the team like their personal fiefdom. Constant re-prioritization due to missed deadlines and lack of a roadmap. Management are more focussed on their pet projects and there is a good chance you might have to work on one of these. The team maintains a revolving door for almost all engineering positions except one or two positions. The people occupying these positions tend to call the shots ripping/re-factoring code written by others and acting as almighty gatekeepers to the codebase. Management does not seem to respect employees.
