Pros
Good Salary A lot of team events Low Pressure for the amount of work you do Not much Accountability, don't really hear from senior management anymore Free food in the office. Best office campus in the world - San Jose one :) Very good salary considering the work required.
Cons
Have to go office - apparently office attendance is being monitored since Q2 this year. Main con is management - Since re-org in late 2022 - a few people were let go from teams, so management could essentially hire her friends to take over those roles - I don't get the obsession with hiring people from non ecomerce backgrounds e.g. Expedia- it literally has no parallel to eBay or any other market place for that matter. Don't see much of management i.e my managers manager... (Senior Director, Global Supply Enablement & Success) anymore - when she first took over she was visible, she asks for reports that make no sense for the role I do. She has literally hired and fired people to get her friends from expedia jobs I had a call with a new hire, who is a level 28 - she asked me what was FBA and a 3PL - quite alarming and surely this hire should of been asked these questions in an interview - and shows what happens when you hire from the wrong background New hire said they won't make changes for 18 months, which again is ridiculous, seems like they want to cash in as much of their salary as possible before they leave. Really hope Ashish C looks into reversing and replacing the senior management especially those from expedia or no e-commerce background Markets aren't working together globally from a BD perspective, its been a year since these changes have been made and nothing has changed really - people in other markets feel the same. There is a fear more layoffs are coming as budgets are being squeezed across teams so please be transparent if thats the case.
