flag Amazon cut 84 Washington jobs in Seattle and Bellevue amid routine reviews, providing 90 days of pay and support.

flag Amazon has laid off 84 employees in Washington state, including in Seattle and Bellevue, as part of routine business reviews unrelated to its October 2025 global layoffs of about 14,000 workers. flag The cuts, which affect roles in software development, program management, and other corporate functions, are being conducted under Washington’s expanded “mini-WARN” law, requiring advance notice for job reductions impacting over 50 workers. flag Affected employees will receive 90 days of full pay and benefits, transitional health coverage, and job placement support. flag The company said the changes reflect internal efficiency efforts, not broader AI-driven restructuring, though Amazon continues to invest heavily in AI. flag No further layoffs are currently planned, but the move adds to ongoing tech industry job reductions amid shifting economic conditions.
