Pros

Brand recognition; the auction site is a great "equalizer" for mom-and-pop sellers against bigger companies on the web; great people - smart, passionate, caring; great corporate value, which are: (1) Lead Completely (2) Keep It Human (3) Trust One Another (4) Practice Judgment

Cons

Long hours; low base pay - compensation based on model when the company stock was returning 20% or more per year; management a bunch of MBA gear heads who do not understand the business and rarely use the auction site

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.
