Pros

Good salary Get a chance to work with other teams, build your network, know the process etc

Cons

Reduce Middle level managements... There are 100's of Managers and equal no of directors and VP's. Organization should be more technical oriented and give more power to Software Engineer (MTS - level N to Junior Engineer) rather than Manager. Manager is more of people manager and he becomes hurdle rather than removing them. Groups, Individuals think of their benefit before eBay's benifit.

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.
