“Amazon said Tuesday that it will lay off about 14,000 corporate employees, marking the latest cuts in the company’s multi-year effort to rein in costs. In a blog post, the company wrote that the layoffs are being carried out to help make the company leaner and less bureaucratic, while it looks to invest in ‘our biggest bets’ including generative artificial intelligence. … The layoffs are expected to ultimately be the largest corporate job cuts in Amazon’s history, CNBC previously reported. Reuters reported the cuts could affect as many as 30,000 employees, citing sources familiar with the matter. Amazon is the nation’s second-largest private employer, with more than 1.54 million staffers globally as of the end of the second quarter. That figure is primarily made up of its warehouse workforce.” (10/28/25)
