Amazon will cut another 9,000 jobs [news.com.au] bringing the total to 27,000 jobs culled so far as part of the 'tech wreck' sweeping the world.

The cuts will take place in coming weeks and are mainly concentrated in Amazon’s web, HR and advertising team. Staff who look after Amazon’s foray into Twitch livestreaming are also set to be impacted.

CEO Andy Jassy said the decision was made to ensure the company remained “streamlined” as tough market conditions bite across the globe.

I would certainly feel 'streamlined' or perhaps in free fall if I no longer had a job.
