eBay plans to cut about 9% of its workforce as it simplifies operations

eBay disclosed a restructuring expected to reduce its global workforce by about 9%, or roughly 1,000 to 1,100 roles. The company expects $130 million to $150 million in charges and plans to substantially complete the program by the end of the first quarter of 2027.
