The layoffs mark the second round of mass cuts at Amazon since last October, when the company laid off roughly 14,000 employees across its corporate workforce.

Amazon.com Inc. is cutting 16,000 corporate jobs worldwide in an effort to remove layers of bureaucracy and “increase ownership,” becoming the latest company to target managers for layoffs in recent years.

Amazon announces another mass layoff as CEO Andy Jassy takes aim at bureaucracy and seeks a cultural reset.

Amazon is cutting another 16,000 jobs as the technology giant continues to remake itself in “a world that’s changing faster than ever,” as noted in a memo to staff Wednesday from Beth Galetti, who leads human resources operations for the company.
