Does anyone have insight on pm experience working in ebay payment team? I heard the team has been growing very fast due to payment migration from paypal to ebay. Is it still growing rapidly with highly visibile projects and safe to join considering the economy? How is the culture and wlb of the team? Thanks! TC-pending
nit : visible
Blind always hates Payments at eBay, but it’s not something I can confirm. Neither the company-internal Glint surveys. Maybe a team specific problem. There are highly visible and very interesting projects inside Payments. The team isn’t growing anymore though. The layoff did impact Payments like the rest of the company. Though compared to other companies, it was a smaller layoff. Regarding your question whether it’s safe to join, I don’t think that can be guaranteed at any company. Then again, nobody can guarantee you that it is safe to stay at your current company either.
Blind eBay hates payments because blind eBay is representation of eBay and eBay hates payments ! It’s that simple.
NhP75D Precisely, here we are talking about Payments 9 3/4 team, which leads to eBay’s Hogwarts. It’s all facade which is hiding something bizarre.

eBay payments is the worst, never come. High on-call, terrible WLB, highly political and no you’re not safe, we had layoffs in Payments. I’ve worked in several companies and eBay payments has been the worst for me
