Amazon CEO warns of more possible layoffs in 2023

Aday after rumored layoffs of Amazon workers were confirmed in the company’s devices and services division, company CEO Andy Jassy warned employees of more potential layoffs to come next year in a letter on Thursday.

In the letter, Jassy said that the company is in the middle of its annual planning review “where we look at each of our businesses and make decisions about what we believe we should change.”

Jassy’s letter reads, in part:

“Our annual planning process extends into the new year, which means there will be more role reductions as leaders continue to make adjustments. Those decisions will be shared with impacted employees and organizations early in 2023. We haven’t concluded yet exactly how many other roles will be impacted (we know that there will be reductions in our Stores and PXT organizations), but each leader will communicate to their respective teams when we have the details nailed down. And, as has been the case this week, we will prioritize communicating directly with impacted employees before making broad public or internal announcements.”
