Pros
Smart people, still one of the premier Internet brands. If you can connect with eBay's business model and mission, then that can make it a fun place to work because you see how the community of eBay buyers and sellers make sure eBay continues to be relevant.
Cons
Lots of politics and, as a result, management is not always selected based on competence. Slow career advancement and development. High stress environment. Frequent re-org's (every 9 months or so) reflect management's inability to provide clear vision or build a strong organization. As a result, you can easily find yourself in a job you don't want or aren't necessarily qualified for, and you aren't set up for success.
