Pros

Good business synergies across eBay properties. Early entrance into market gives PayPal momentum. CEO has focus on competitive pressures.

Cons

Political banking-type culture. Cronyism rampant. Resource allocation process opaque and insufficient to sustain current business and makes it hard to get things done. Focused prioritization on investment required. Product managers not able to run their business, but are project managers. Offshore development model highly ineffective.

Pros

Great people, smart people. With new CEO, maybe things will get back

Cons

Been a horrible last 3 years. Non-stop re-offs, new leadership that cut everyone and brought in new people who don’t know anything. No clear priorities, no leadership.
