    Buyers and Sellers are what make eBay. They should be listened to within the company. Decisions are made everyday and useless redesigning and glitches are never ending. eBay needs to employ more experienced computer programmers.

  • eBay connects people and builds communities to create economic opportunity for all.
  • We pioneered recommerce, or circular commerce, with the first sale on our marketplace in 1995: a pre-owned laser pointer, purchased by someone who wanted to fix it and give it a second life.
  • Learn how we’re empowering people through our talent accelerator program.
  • eBay is comprised of people from all over the world, each bringing their own unique experience, background and perspective to our global community. Hear from some of our customers and employees on what DE&I means to them and how it is core to our purpose as a company.
  • eBay empowers people and communities to unlock possibilities for growth. Our marketplace uplifts and brings people together. The pioneers, the collectors, the dreamers, the artists, the givers, the fans, the treasure hunters, the college students, the technologists who innovate for our customers, the innovators, the retirees, the people making a difference for sellers every day, the family-owned businesses, the side-hustlers, the small-scale entrepreneurs with big dreams.
