Amazon has announced a decision to cut another 9,000 employees in the coming weeks. This was announced by Chief Executive Officer Andy Jesse, emphasizing that this time employees of the following departments will be sent outside: Web Services, HR, advertising and live streaming service Twitch.

This is reported by Bloomberg.

Given the past waves of layoffs involving 18,000 employees, it can be emphasized that the largest layoff in the company’s history continues.

Jesse noted that the ranks of Amazon employees have replenished to a large extent over the past few years. That is why the latest cuts occurred against the background of the completion by teams of the next phase of the company’s annual planning process.
