Amazon axes 14,000 jobs as it refocuses business on AI

SLIMMING DOWN: CEO Andy Jassy

But the tech giant had been feared to be cutting as many as 30,000 corporate posts worldwide.

In a message to workers, the Seattle-based behemoth said the job losses come as part of efforts to reduce “layers and bureaucracy”.

It is understood all main global operations will be impacted, with the UK among those to see office roles axed.
