Recent significant developments include eBay’s announcement in January of a workforce reduction by 1,000 jobs, about 9% of its full-time staff, as a response to the “challenging macroeconomic environment,” according to CEO Jamie Iannone. The company also plans to scale back its contracts with its “alternate workforce” in the coming months.
Our ProTips underscore eBay’s strengths, such as aggressive share buybacks, a five-year streak of dividend increases, high gross profit margins, and anticipated net income growth, among others.
