Confirmed by a friend to me, seems to be ML retail, not sure why the previous post was deleted seems like the slack channel is increasing in users, there is a report of a post in slack but I haven't confirmed #amazon #layoffs [ for Amazon folks please confirm below if you are impacted / know someone impacted and any information about the scale] EDIT: Layoff are notified via 15 min meeting with skip level SDM / HRBP
What’s the approx number of people being laid off?
What is ML Retail? What’s the actual org name?
True. Couple of L6 friends confirmed this.
Can someone from Amazon confirm on blind? No comment from any of Amazon employees?
I call bs
Y? Jassy had already told it’s gonna happen. Also, people have started confirming it.
What does ML retail do?
Can confirm, lots of them have their calendar booked for 15 mins, that validates it
Can you share the org name?
How do you know?
Can you explain what is ml retail? And layoff only in india? How is it possible? Cost of labor there is one third of US. Doesn’t make sense for cost cutting purpose
Not sure about India. But they are gonna layoff in US for sure. May be they have delayed in US because of holiday season here.
Yes, Twilio knows internal details on Amazon layoffs. I'll believe ya.
Confirmed today see new posts
That was a BS post. Don’t spread rumors.
Trust worthy person confirmed it to me so seems likely to me, we will probably have 100% confirmation in a couple of hours once people start making linkedin posts
What is BS ?
