eBay Announces Restructuring Plan to Cut 1,000 Jobs and Incur Charges

On January 23, 2024, eBay Inc. announced a restructuring plan aimed at reducing operating costs and improving efficiency. The plan includes a workforce reduction of approximately 1,000 roles, or 9% of its full-time employees, and is expected to result in GAAP pre-tax charges of $90 million to $110 million, primarily related to severance payments and post-employment benefits. The actions are expected to be complete by the end of the second quarter of 2024. The company expects that the expense savings will be used to further its strategic and operating initiatives, including growing expenses more slowly than revenue in 2024.
