Pros

eBay is one of the largest internet sites, so you can learn a lot here. I also found most of my co-workers are quite competent.

Cons

The work environment can be a grind. People are packed in, and they're shoe-horning in even more. I think the only reason why they might tolerate you working at home is if you have leprosy.

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.
