Amazon Layoffs: Tech Firm to Cut 14,000 Manager Positions by 2025, Says Report

Imagine the bottom 14000 managers from Amazon on the loose getting jobs elsewhere and spreading the worst parts of its culture around in other companies. Effectively unleashes a biological virus at other FAANGs and smaller companies. Good job Amazon.

&gt; Jassy also introduced a &quot;bureaucracy tipline&quot; that allows employees to report unnecessary procedures that hinder their work, according to the report.<p>Would anyone actually use that? For example if you were complaining about the bureaucracy of dealing with your manager&#x27;s process, you might face retaliation. Or worse, a lot of the bureaucracy may actually be due to the edicts of higher up executives.<p>Or is this just a stunt to virtue signal efficiency?

Sigh! 105K managers currently and with the 14K cuts it will still be around 91K. As a manager myself, I fully understand and appreciate the value they bring but not matter how large your workforce having 90K+ managers is insanity. Hopefully they are focussing on the middle management and not first-line managers.

How any company has 14000 extra managers is just beyond me.
