Pros

Flexible hours, good relationships with coworkers. We all pull together to get the job done when necessary. Quarterly bonuses are nice.

Cons

Senior management constantly changing the game, cannot seem to appease the shareholders, have not instituted a policy our customers actually like for months. Problem employees are never dealt with, and favoritism is preferred over merit as the way to get ahead. Our core team has worked there since the beginning, and it's NOT the same. Our job titles have changed, we've been promoted a little, but ultimately we're still doing the same jobs as we were 7 years ago.

Pros

This used ot be a great place to work. The only good thing about this company are the people who are not in managment who are left wondering why so many unecessary and detrimental changes have been made in recent months. I like the regular folk that work in the regular jobs who areleft scratching their heads every day as to why this company is being driven into the ground by Donanhoe.

Cons

If it was not for this terrible economy I would be out of this place where people are treated like cattle. Management is a bunch of buffoons who like to make crazy rules to justify their jobs. Ebay will probably go out of business due to poor management left to make despotic rules unchecked. Did I mention that I hate this place I work at? I HATE IT HERE!

Pros

The humanistic culture makes it a very pleasant place to work. I've never met so many nice people in all my life. People are good and all that. The business is very interesting and there are lots of challenging problems to solve and lots of data to throw against them. The people are smart and interesting. Work life balance isn't bad if you set boundaries.

Cons

The lack of long-term planning and frequent changes in direction spin the organization around like you wouldn't believe. This is still an immature company with immayure procosses. So much work is manual.
