eBay Employee Reviews for Program Manager

"Constantly evolving and changing."

What do you like about working at eBay?

"The people! The people that I worked with side-by-side, day-in day-out were absolutely the best part about working for eBay. I really liked the pace that the company moved at. There are always new initiatives and projects to contribute to. As a very technical oriented individual, I was constantly learning and exploring tools, development and vast amounts of data."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"eBay is a wonderful company to work for. The opportunities to move and explore working in other departments become available quickly if you are passionate about your job and you show interest and curiosity."

What don't you like about working at eBay?

"I struggled with the often disconnect between the Business Unit and Operations of the company. There was often a frustration among those who were on the front-lines of the day to day operations being instructed to modify their job function which felt contradictory to the best result for the customer and the company."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"I believe strongly in open and honest communication between manager and employee. I believe that it's important for both parties to be receptive and forthright with expectations. It's difficult for Managers to listen to everyone and execute quickly, but equally its critical for Managers to refrain from dismissive comments and suggestions. Employees often won't speak up with such comments or suggestions unless they love their job and are passionate about the company they work for. Turning a deaf ear to feedback only creates a divide and breaks down the trust of a team."
