Amazon layoff: Company to fire up to 30,000 corporate jobs in its biggest layoff since 2022 amid AI overhaul and bureaucracy crackdown

Amazon is set to eliminate as many as 30,000 corporate positions, as part of a strategic move to streamline operations and address overhiring during the pandemic’s peak demand.

This significant reduction represents approximately 10 percent of Amazon’s 350,000 corporate employees, though it constitutes a small fraction of the company’s total workforce of 1.55 million.
