Amazon employee claims 5 AM termination email, Internet calls it, “good move for the company”

Amazon has laid off 100 workers from its devices and services team, which works on products like Kindle, Echo speakers, the Alexa voice assistant, and Zoox self-driving cars. The company confirmed the job cuts on Wednesday in a statement. Amazon said these layoffs make up a small part of the whole team and that they don’t make these decisions lightly. Amazon spokesperson Kristy Schmidt said the company decided to cut a small number of jobs to improve how its teams work and to better match its future product plans. Schmidt added that it was a tough decision and that Amazon is focused on helping the employees who are affected during this time of change.
