r/cscareerquestions on Reddit: [BREAKING] Amazon to layoff 30,000 corporate employees in one of the largest layoffs in its history
October 27, 2025 -

Amazon is planning to cut as many as 30,000 corporate jobs beginning Tuesday, as the company works to pare expenses and compensate for overhiring during the peak demand of the pandemic, according to three people familiar with the matter.

The figure represents a small percentage of Amazon’s 1.55 million total employees, but nearly 10% of the company’s roughly 350,000 corporate employees. This would represent the largest job cut at Amazon since around 27,000 jobs were eliminated starting in late 2022.

Managers of impacted teams were asked to undergo training on Monday for how to communicate with staff following notifications that will start going out via email tomorrow morning

6 days ago - Companies (all of them, but especially) like Amazon love desperate grunt workers. They know the worker has no choice and will comply with all the fuckass dumb shit the managers come up with. Also, sometimes it's seasonal work.
