"Amazon will reduce its overall workforce by 14,000, cutting layers of management across the company and hiring in some areas to support its "biggest bets". Staff will hear from their managers later today about the cuts, and affected employees will have 90 days to look for a new role internally, the company said. "Some may ask why we're reducing roles when the company is performing well," wrote Beth Galetti, Amazon's senior VP of people experience and technology, in a blog post on the company's website."
