"Those decisions will be shared with impacted employees and
organizations early in 2023", said Andy Jassy, who became the
company's Chief Executive Officer in 2021, in a letter to Amazon
employees.
Jassy added the company was in the middle of an annual operating
planning review where it was making decisions about what should
change in each of its business.
Amazon has not yet decided on how many other roles will be
impacted from the move.
The online retailer laid off some employees in its devices group
on Wednesday and a person familiar with the matter said the
company still targeted around 10,000 job cuts, including in its
retail division and human resources.
