eBay Work Experiences
- 1.0Work here if you want to commit suicideSoftware Engineer • Former EmployeeAustin, Texas, United StatesApril 6, 2022Pros: Compensation, Nothing else, Nothing else, Nothing else, Nothing elseCons: I gave one star for the compensation, but eBay makes sure every penny you get paid is earned by you by draining you with work, without even letting you finish your onboarding. I was asked to finish my onboarding training after business hours and was asked to provide an estimate on tickets in my first week at work. To summarize, it's a toxic environment, a bad work culture that doesn't care about employees' personal lives, a negative work-life balance, discrimination, and unnecessary escalations and design meetings every day that run for hours with nothing productive during those hours, wasting developers' time. Managers have no clue about any projects and only want to finish the projects before the timeline, cutting short the development process. Every manager wants to be a hero in this company by making their managees work extra hours day and night and during weekends, taking away time from family.

The technology group has very poor leadership (VP levels) that mainly focuses on politics and takes care of their yes men. Tech is old. New processes in shopping experience can take 2-3 years instead of several weeks.
