While the company CEO Jassy went on to say, “Some may ask why we didn’t announce these role reductions with the ones we announced a few months ago.” The short answer is that not all of the teams completed their analyses by late autumn; also, instead of hurry through these appraisals without the proper industriousness, we decided to share these choices as we’ve made them so individuals had the data quickly.”
Amazon’s most recent layoffs come amid a string of job cuts in the technology sector over the past few months due to pandemic-induced demand for digital goods and services and general uncertainty in the economy.
