"AWS is cutting 14,000 management jobs globally, including at least 150 in Ireland"
"Tech companies don't actively want to eliminate your job with AI - but for some, it is happening anyway."
"Last week I walked the corridors of Amazon's Seattle headquarters."
"It's not just one of the world's biggest companies, but is also a bellwether for this age's great workplace debate: AI and job replacement."
AWS is cutting 14,000 management jobs globally, with at least 150 roles affected in Ireland. The layoffs illustrate tensions between technological change and employment stability, showing that AI can contribute to job displacement even when companies do not aim to eliminate roles. Amazon's Seattle headquarters symbolizes the broader workplace debate about automation and workforce restructuring. Management-level positions are particularly exposed during strategic realignments and cost-cutting measures. These developments reflect wider trends in the tech sector as companies balance innovation, efficiency, and the social impacts of automation.
