Beth Galetti, Amazon’s senior vice president of people experience and technology, said in a blog post on Wednesday that U.S.-based employees affected by the layoffs will be given 90 days to search for a new role within the company. They will also receive severance packages and other support to ease the transition.
“Some of you might ask if this is the beginning of a new rhythm—where we announce broad reductions every few months. That's not our plan,” Galetti wrote. “We’ve been working to strengthen our organization by reducing layers, increasing ownership, and removing bureaucracy.”
