Thread regarding Amazon.com layoffs

@ap name names !

"If only American consumers pulled the plug . . . "

That will never happen. Americans exist to consooooooooom!

@bd 90 days to look for an internal position.

If only American consumers pulled the plug, STOP BUYING FROM AMAZON the consequences would be seismic. Amazon’s retail machine — which draws roughly 70% of its sales from the U.S. — would implode. The stock would crash, warehouses would go dark, and millions of sellers who built their livelihoods around one company would face chaos. Factories across Asia that churn out Amazon goods would lose orders overnight. The global ripple would be swift and brutal.

@az this lady needs to be laid off, incompetent. Instead of using the "convinced", she is using the word "convicted". Even if this is a typo, just lay her off.

@ay "Hard working" does not necessarily mean "competent".

90 days is nothing in this market. Tech market is flooded still, expect to be searching 6+ months

Really? "We’re convicted that we need to be organized more leanly, ...."

@ap BS. These are the hardest working people AWS. You come across as entitled.

Is this a middle management purge?

If you're still looking for people to lay off, I can give you the names of a few completely useless AWS Client Support Engineers that it has been my misfortune to have worked with over the years . . .

Here's my take -
If every massive company in the world had to mu---r 100,000 people in order to retain their position of dominance and historically unheard of levels of profit, they would do so quickly and painlessly, and they would target their competitors customers.
If every massive company had to mu---r 10,000 of their employees in order to remain competitive in the market, they would compensate affected families fairly significantly, but would weigh the payments against shareholder profits so as not to make any significant difference whatsoever to the bottom line, and if they could find one more corner to cut on top of that, they would, just to signal shareholder trust.
If every individual in charge of a company such as this could sell off the souls of their friends and families (let alone mere strangers, despite any fact they may have given half of their life to the leaders mission), and thus damning them all to an eternal afterlife of torturous nothingness, I believe that they would at the absolute minimum need to hear out the offer and run the math, for their own position in life, as well as their bonus, and their fantasy of enslaving the world, depends on it.

Jassh0le isn't done methinks.

Correction: great AI customer experiences.

Great customer experiences?
