eBay to cut 1,000 jobs, or 9pc of workforce, after earlier layoffs
NEW YORK, Oct 22 — US e-commerce platform eBay will cut some 1,000 jobs, or about nine per cent of its workforce,...
Ebay, the popular online marketplace, announced plans to cut 1,000 jobs in a second round of workforce reductions, according to a report by CNBC. The company aims to streamline its operations and concentrate its resources on its fastest-growing business areas. This latest round of layoffs affects about 9% of eBay's global workforce, bringing the total job cuts to around 1,500 employees since February 2026. eBay CEO Jamie Iannone stated in an internal memo that the company is making strategic decisions to focus on its main business priorities and make better use of its resources as it prepares for future growth opportunities.
Despite the job cuts, eBay plans to continue hiring for roles that align with its business goals. The company reported having around 12,300 employees worldwide in December 2025. The job cuts come after eBay's February 2026 layoff, which affected approximately 800 employees.
