I worked at eBay/PP for a few years. I really enjoyed my time there, for what it’s worth.

I have a friend who just jumped ship from Ebay Corporate Strat. Just exited to the big G after 1.3 years at Ebay. At Ebay she went from Associate to M in less than a year. Said she learned a lot and was trusted with a lot of responsibility but wanted to get out since prospects were not looking too good.

Well, take it

For context, role is high profile (SVP of group is the Chief Strat Officer). I have ~1.5 YOE post undergrad. But I’m concerned that I only get to exit consulting once and in my mind making a move to Cali would want a sexier firm within big Tech for such a big transition. Exit opptys make more of a difference for me vs. purely pay as I am just starting out in my career

What’s your background? Asking because I’m interested in eBay.

Isn’t eBay firing people.

Hey! Could I ask how you were able to land an interview for this role? I’m also coming in 1.5 years at a T2 and trying to find similar exit ops. Thank you!

Need advice please: Have you ever applied to a role on LinkedIn or ZipRecruiter, see that your application gets downloaded, or even get a “thumbs up” on ZipRecruiter, and then they don’t reach out to you for so much as a 10 minute phone screen? Is there anything I can do to get them to respond to me? I’ve tried reaching out to the hiring managers, job posters etc. and no luck! 😞

Anyone else notice a trend with the mass amounts of layoffs in tech? Why are all their resumes so jumpy? Not like 2-5 years jumpy, like few months at a time jumpy? But still can land a position with similar tech giants? IMO, lots of these people get hired by their rich friends, stay a few months before someone realized they aren’t qualified and were just a recommendation from a current employee. Then repeat that process over and over until your company is down 50%

The PE culture is sick. The 20 something VP was rude to our partner because our team took thanksgiving and the day before off and it was in the engagement letter that we were gonna be off. He kept emphasizing that his team did our job while we were on a break. Dude we are not sick like you and we have lives. I see something about how s**t the PE culture is in every deal we support.

Like these sickos make fun of us for working 80+ hours weeks for them and taking thanksgiving off.
