After India, Amazon to layoff employees in THESE countries
India TV NewsAmazon layoffs: As part of its plan to lay off 18,000 employees, the e-commerce giant Amazon will cut some jobs by the end of Wednesday in various countries including the United States, Canada and Costa Rica, reports said. Amazon.com Chief Executive Andy Jassy stated earlier this month that the e-commerce and human resources divisions would be most affected by the reductions, which would affect about 6% of the company's 300,000 corporate employees. Reports suggest that Amazon's devices division, which includes the voice assistant Alexa, as well as its retail division and human resources, will be the most significantly impacted by the layoffs. The number of layoffs is still a fluid target as each company completes its preparation and is likely to occur team by team rather than all at once.But if it maintains at approximately 10,000, it would represent roughly 3% of Amazon's corporate staff and less than 1% of its more than 1.5 million global workforce, which is mainly made up of hourly workers.
