How safe is Amazon Robotics?

We had a Q&A with Scott Dresser and he answered multiple questions about layoffs. I just couldn’t figure out what the hell he was saying. My L6 said AR is fine since they had a reshuffle earlier this fall but I’m unsure. Anyone in Robotics know if the org is safe from coming layoffs?

They laid off their robotics division I guess. They were the first to go.

You should be delusional to equate safety with Amazon. Anything Amazon avoid like a plague!

Robotics doesn’t make money now. It is most likely they are in layoffs State

How do you think 2 day shipping exists lmao what comment is this? You talking about programs already let go (before everyone and their mom was afraid of layoffs)?

Doesn’t Amazon robotics do all the robots for warehouses? Isn’t that pretty essential for retail?
