Pros
eBayK Germany, Marktplaats classifieds business is stopping the ship from sinking. Motors a strong category where still has good revenue
Cons
Company is slowly dying. It has only grown via adding more ads to its pages, relying on an increasingly difficult freemium business model that doesn’t translate well to app, small screen. Senior management/ the leadership team is in disarray, they don’t know what to do and are actively encouraging managers to fire ‘restructure’, targeting employees in local markets to reduce headcount. The Portland dev team will likely be the next to be axed. eBay openly mock and hate classifieds and accuse them of stealing their business in every all-hands - actual eBay where you pay a fee on goods sold. Facebook actively taking market share alongside app only players like Letgo.
