In a letter to employees, Andy Jassy, who became Amazon's CEO in 2021, stated, "Those decisions will be shared with impacted employees and organizations early in 2023."

The CEO stated that Amazon was amid an annual operating planning review, which entails decision-making about what needs to be changed, but the company has not decided still on the number of other roles that may be potentially affected by this decision.

A few employees in its devices group were laid off on Wednesday, and according to an inside source knowledgeable on the matter, Amazon still had a range of targets nearly concerning 10,000 job cuts, not sparing its retail division and human resources.

At a time when Amazon founder Jeff Bezos is promising to give away most of his wealth for charity, The New York Times revealed on November 14 that Amazon was planning to cut about 10,000 jobs mainly in corporate and technology roles. 

The fourth-wealthiest person in the world said he was “building the capacity to be able to give away this money.” The challenge, he said, is to figure out how to donate a big part of his $124 billion personal fortune.
