Desventajas
Working at eBay has been one of the most frustrating experiences of my career. The way they handle layoffs is shockingly cold and bare minimum. Employees are given little to no notice, and severance packages seem designed to do nothing more than barely comply with the WARN Act—nothing beyond what’s legally required. Compared to other major tech companies like Amazon, Microsoft, and Meta, the difference is night and day. Those companies at least attempt to support impacted employees with extended notice periods, internal mobility options, or time to find new roles. At eBay, you get none of that—just a quick exit and a “good luck.” What makes it worse is the broader strategy. While laying off employees in the U.S., the company has been ramping up hiring elsewhere, including opening a large office in Mumbai and aggressively expanding the workforce there. It sends a clear message about how little they value their existing employees. Morale is low, trust in leadership is nonexistent, and the culture feels increasingly transactional. Hard work and loyalty are not rewarded here—they’re discarded when convenient. If you’re considering joining, think twice. This is not a company that stands by its employees when it matters most.
