Task
What is the secret of successful companies like eBay? Commitment. Only when employees internalize and live common values and goals, they do their best – and become ambassadors for their company both internal and external. Such commitment does not come and stay on its own. It requires communication.
Implementation
Our activities serve to strengthen commitment, corporate culture and loyalty of the employees. They should internalize eBay's values, goals and strategy, and accordingly align their actions, as they contribute to the company's success.
Result
Our work helps eBay to continue positioning itself as an outstanding employer which is also confirmed by the results of the kununu rating platform: 76% of the rating users would recommend eBay as an employer. Communication and culture are valuated with 3.7 and 3.8 out of 5 stars - significantly higher than the industry average in retail. This makes us proud and spurs us on.
