E-commerce giant eBay (EBAY) is streamlining its operations by slashing up to 800 jobs, or about 6% of its workforce, the company said Thursday.
“We are taking steps to reinvest across our business and align our structure with our strategic priorities, which will affect certain roles across our workforce,” eBay said in a statement. “We are grateful for the contributions of the employees impacted and are committed to supporting them with care and respect.”
The news comes after the company announced last week it would buy Depop, a secondhand clothing marketplace from Etsy (ETSY), for $1.2B in cash in a move to capture the Gen Z and Millennial customer base.
eBay has announced job cuts for the third time in recent years. It cut 1,000 jobs in 2024 and 500 jobs in 2023.
As of December 31, 2025, eBay’s employee headcount was 12,300 worldwide.
