Despite these layoffs, AWS remains in a hiring mode for other parts of its business, actively seeking to reposition affected employees within the company.
The cuts are part of AWS’s strategy to streamline its operations and focus on critical strategic areas anticipated to have the most significant impact.
The job reductions are set to occur globally, with a considerable effect expected on Amazon’s Seattle workforce. Affected U.S. employees will receive comprehensive support, including severance packages and job placement assistance.
Amazon slashed hundreds of positions in 2024 and around 27,000 in 2022 and 2023, joining many tech companies.
The job cuts included Twitch, Prime Video, Amazon MGM Studios, One Medical and Pharmacy units. It also looks to save $1.3 billion in costs by reducing its office space and opting out of leases early.
Price Action: AMZN shares traded higher by 1.18% at $182.85 on the last check Wednesday.
