      Pros

      - Nice campus - Good facilities - Great cafeteria - Good company mission - Interesting challenges to solve

      Cons

      - No diversity - Weak quality of engineers compared to other silicon valley companies - A bunch of yes men lead organizations, that don't question or debate anything that comes from the top - Total command and control style leadership, constantly hounding dates - Easily swayed by rumors and don't bother to perform their own analysis - If you are part of the desi mafia, you will thrive (sad)

      Pros

      It is equivalent to winning the lottery for a dream job.

      Cons

      Sunday work can be challenging- due to daycare challenges, but ebay supports work/life balance so its not really a con

      Pros

      Good work, lots of AI experiments, AI innovation, latest tech stack, Co-workers are very co-operative and helpful. Most AI tools are still unlimited.

      Cons

      Some teams are over-working due to smaller teams as a result of recent layoffs. Office perks (like catered food, snacks) are dwindling every quarter even though company wants every employee to be 3 days a week in office. Company wants 80 percent code to be generated by AI but no clear guideline how to achieve that.
