Amazon is laying off 30,000 workers in a major restructuring to boost efficiency and profitability.

Amazon is cutting approximately 30,000 jobs across corporate, customer service, and technology roles as part of a major restructuring aimed at improving efficiency and profitability. The layoffs, one of the largest in the company’s history, reflect a shift from pandemic-era hiring to a more cautious approach amid economic uncertainty. While no specific departments or regions were named, the cuts are not tied to any product failure and are expected to be completed by year-end. Affected employees will receive severance and outplacement support. The move aligns with broader tech industry trends as companies adjust to slowing growth and rising costs.
