Pros: eBay has great benefits, is fairly stable, and offers super high scale and performance, therefore it is technically challenging. Resources are always low, hence there are low chances of layoff.

Cons: The company is not growing like Amazon, Google, or Facebook. It has a very political environment, with a high rate of change leading to a lot of churn. All teams have insufficient resources, always.

Pros: I've been employed at eBay for 3+ years and have been in the software industry for > 25 years. eBay is the best company I've worked for, in which your work ethic, skills, and innovation are the basis for your reviews and advancement. If you want to come in, work hard, innovate, and really advance your personal skills and abilities, eBay allows you to do all that and more.

Cons: All companies have some level of politics, and of course eBay is no different. So, if I'm looking for a con, that's about the only one I can really point to from a company perspective. The only other con is that many people who join eBay are very technically strong and looking for a new challenge monthly (weekly, daily even for some), which leads to quite a bit of attrition. This level of attrition can make your job harder because the service, module, component, etc. that you need to interface with often no longer has any original authors or true owners.

Pros: Good environment Work-life balance

Cons: Benefits - Currently they are new to India. They are trying to increase employee benefits to match those of other companies.
