This is the second round of layoffs for the company in the past six months
Online retailer Amazon has revealed it will be cutting a further 9,000 jobs.
This is the second round of layoffs for the company this year, after axing a total of 18,000 jobs over the past six months.
It’s on the back of a possible economic recession and tightened conditions.
“Given the uncertain economy in which we reside, and the uncertainty that exists in the near future, we have chosen to be more streamlined in our costs and headcount.” CEO Andy Jassy said in a company memo.
Amazon follows Meta – becoming the second tech giant to announce a second round of cuts.
The layoffs are concentrated on the company’s cloud services, advertising and Twitch units.
