And on your way out, don’t forget to pay your electric bill now that we are commoditizing electrical service.

The roles aren’t being cut, they’re being outsourced to India. Amazon is hiring like crazy in Hyderabad. My skip manager now has 4 people under him in Hyderabad despite my entire team getting laid off to “stay nimble”.

Why blame Indians or India? It’s the American CEOs and shareholders who are greedy.

No need to outsourced to India if AMZN can just get AI & robots to do the job in the US. Thank God that these jobs are staying in the US. Right?

So Bezos shot his blow up doll into space and bought a massive yacht – yet can’t keep 16k employed?????? But hey, he is left leaning so there won’t ever be a No Kings march for him right?

As bad as Bezos is, I don’t think he would have had much input on this. Andy Jassy is CEO now and Bezos’s other companies are directly competing with Amazon in some areas.
Andy Jassy is just moronic. This is one of the many ways he is destroying the company. Others include forced AI usage even when it’s totally inappropriate and killing off long term bets in order to penny pinch now. It’s completely antithetical to how Bezos did things and how Jassy claimed he would do things. If you read the old letters Bezos would write to shareholders it’s a night and day difference in leadership style.

AI is great for productivity. Those individuals who can creat a decent JSON BLOB to get AI agents to complete tasks reliably will be paid big $. Others will be laid off in mass!
