Employee retention as a success factor

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. 

In a fast-paced digital environment like eBay's, it is essential to get all employees on board and inspire them with a shared vision. How do you make hundreds of employees feel like they are part of a larger whole?

Strategic internal communication

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. 

PIO supports and advises eBay on all communication topics for employees. This includes fixed formats such as newsletters and team days, managing internal communication channels, and organizing inspiring events, activities, and challenges. We work closely with eBay employees and support them both digitally and offline at their location.

Employee satisfaction that speaks for itself

Our work helps eBay to continue positioning itself as an outstanding employer which is also confirmed by the results of the kununu rating platform (2025): 75% of the rating users would recommend eBay as an employer. Corporate culture is valuated with 3.9 out of 5 stars - significantly higher than the industry average in retail. This makes us proud and spurs us on.
