Amazon has once again made unfortunate job cuts announcement with fresh layoffs in Washington state, leading to worry among locals and workers alike. In a new filing with the Washington state government, the global technology and e-commerce giant confirmed it will eliminate further 84 positions across its offices in the state.
However, the company has very clearly stressed that this new round of cuts is separate from the much larger workforce reductions it announced globally earlier this year. The clarification has obviously done little to soften the blow for those directly affected, nor for those who see these measures as part of a bigger layoff trend in the tech industry.
