      Pros

      popular company, reach to millions of users

      Cons

      too much politics. technology group has very poor leadership (VP levels) that mainly do politics and taking care for his yes men. tech is old. new processes in shopping experience can take 2-3 years instead of several weeks.

      HR protects management - beware

      Pros

      Ebay has always had a good mission, the management people and lack of new thinking in infrastructure teams under the current CTO is disappointing.

      Cons

      Long grueling work hours in data infrastructure team. Confusion abounds on Data Infrastructure, folks who suck up are promoted and retained, those who do not are managed out. HR protects management, if you speak up it all goes back to management and then they begin to make a strategy to exit you. Favoritism abounds. Beware.

      Pros

      Work life balance is really good.

      Cons

      A 27level sr scientist said search a list array needs constant time. Lol A lot of people working there don’t know how to code! The entire machine learning system is outdated. People still use random forest in production.
