How employees describe working at eBay
Poor, management doesn't care about sellers. Money has been made focusing on squeezing sellers and reducing their margins. Management team has no skin in the game. Only sells stock never buys
Software engineer to develop eBay internal software to support its infrastructure
The eBay level of service has dramatically decreased over the past few years
good good good good good
Their customer service is very unprofessional with no accountability they offer no resolution whatsoever, they just keep kicking the can down the road by asking you to call back in 7 to 10 days to check status it has been 6 weeks, multiple calls and still nothing to this day.
