Lets watch the dominos fall now
I suppose they’re going to replace these jobs with AI.
I wonder if closely linked PayPal will also do the same?
Announce layoffs, the stock price goes up. Announce a new AI pivot, the stock price goes up. We are so cooked.
Bought a high-end cinema camera a while back from a seller that looked legit but when the camera didn’t arrive I looked into their past sales and they were clearly a fraud. Filed a complaint with eBay and the automated systems ruled in favor of the fraud leaving me out thousands of dollars. I called eBay and explained the situation to a rep. and within a minute she could tell the user was a scammer and got the ruling reverse and my money back within hours. I say all of that to say: It is going to be F.U.N when eBay goes even more fully automated/AI (and if you doubt that is their path, I just got a survey and interview request from them this week and the questions were almost entirely about AI integration).
Wow they are making bank from pokemon but still chose this route. Guess they needed more cash to fund the Depop acquisition.
More winning for Americans.
It was completed yesterday. Not sure why it’s only being reported today.
What really shocks me about this is the fact eBay still has ~13,000 employees.
A recruiter just tried to recruit me for ebay and when I asked her specifics about the role in terms of Seniority, her response was basically „We’re recruiting for many roles across levels and the level will be determined during the interview.“ I was like no thanks you need to tell me SPECIFICALLY what level you’re hiring for, the team and makeup. I’m not doing 7 rounds of interviews for a generic, hand wavy placement. Alas they had this primed up for their employees. Glad I said no.
