Amazon CEO Andy Jassy, the human combover of corporate overhaul, is slashing 30,000 jobs—about 10% of their corporate workforce—faster than you can say 'hardcore culture reset.' Since last year, they've already cut 27,000 like expired Prime deliveries, affecting teams from HR to retail across the US, UK, and Canada. Their severance package promises 90 days’ full pay and benefits, which is cute, like saying 'we care' while emptying the warehouse. Post-pandemic slowdown led Jassy to axe layers of management, demand 5-day office attendance, and convince even AI to cut jobs—because robots need buddies too. Meanwhile, their 1.6 million employee peak shrinks like a cheap hoodie in the wash.
