UPS to cut 30,000 jobs amid decline in Amazon deliveries
Amazon is slashing about 16,000 jobs in the second round of mass layoffs for the e-commerce company in three months.
The tech giant has said it plans to use generative artificial intelligence to replace corporate workers. It has also been reducing a workforce that swelled during the pandemic.
Beth Galetti, a senior vice-president at Amazon, said in a blog post Wednesday that the company has been “reducing layers, increasing ownership, and removing bureaucracy.” The latest reductions follow a round of job cuts in October, when Amazon said it was laying off 14,000 workers. While some Amazon units completed those “organisational changes” in October, others did not finish until now, Galetti said.
