Fortunately for John Donahoe the employees don't vote on who is CEO at eBay. According to Glassdoor.com John's approval rating is coming in at just under 30%. Apparently not even 1 in 3 eBay employees is happy with the job that John is doing at eBay.
According to a Wired.com article, John Donahoe is not rated last but next to last among CEO's with reviews by 50 or more employees. The worst rating that came in belonged to the CEO of Motorola. Although the ratings are probably skewed for a number of reasons such as:
1. A rumor is circling that eBay is going to announce a large lay off.
2. In general employees who are upset post on Glassdoor.com.
3. People who were pushed out when Meg Whitman left, left negative reviews.
Nonetheless, the data shows that a large percentage of the eBay employees is not on board with John and his plans for eBay. Just for curiosities sake I am going to put a poll up for readers to vote on whether or not they approve of John's job as CEO of eBay. The poll's goal is to get an approval rating from eBay users and compare it to the employees.
Also, please post all your comments and thoughts below as to why you think John's ratings are where they are.

The only inference I can make from eBay's actions this past year, is that John Donahoe is an arrogant fool. He is literally killing the proverbial "golden goose," as one comment on glassdoor.com said. As an EX-powerseller, I can only agree. (Left a few months ago).
