Fresh round of layoffs at Amazon India. Has anyone heard anything?

Had heard from someone that there were layoffs supposed to happen this week at AWS. Just heard from a colleague that someone they know was asked to leave today.

Does anyone know more?

From what I’ve read one more round of lay offs in July ~10k employees.

Not sure about fresh grads, but if economy continues going downhill thn the risk is real

This isn't fresh this is building on the same announcement that andy jassy did.

Amazon is trying to run a lean ship. @DrProduct is right, Andy Jassy has clearly laid this out internally and multiple people from AWS and Ads team are being let go today.

Heard they have around 500 folks in their ad sales team! It's inevitable if it's true since it's too much of a bloat!
