Any layoff news on Amazon Go / IHM / JWO / Just walk out technology layoffs under Dilip or otherwise? I heard that a certain team in Bangalore understand JWO got laid off completely (Galactus Database team - DDS). Some part of JWO was brought under AWS a few months ago. But Amazon Go, physical stores, is still under retail. #amazon #layoff #amazonlayoffs #amazonlayoff
What is JWO?
Just Walk Out
Wasn't Amazon Go moved under AWS. Pretty sure that part is safe ?
Amazon Go should not exist in this financial condition, they won't break even anywhere in the near future. That said, the leadership with this group should be uprooted to cut losses not L4 L5 s. Surviving in Amazon as an engineer is itself a testament to someone's survival skills
Amazon Go is not a viable business. The leadership of this org is well below the bar and needs to change starting at the very top for it be even look like a real business.
JWO is Just Walk Out, name of the technology used at Amazon Go, Whole foods, etc
How about Hyderabad? That office has been largely disappointed
Why this post is in public thread? Like Google gonna help you find out whether you gonna get laid off or not.
Under Dilip, nothing is safe! He jump Style and now it’s closed down. JWO is just the start. They tend to pick 16, 17, 18 before quarter earning and it’s going to be a surprise!! Check out this post!
