Signed by senior vice-president Colleen Aubrey, the email described the layoffs as “Project Dawn” and cited long-term restructuring goals.
Amazon cut 14,000 corporate roles in October and continues to unwind pandemic-era hiring.
Chief executive Andy Jassy has warned AI could replace some white-collar jobs.
The news followed job-cut plans from United Parcel Service, which is scaling back Amazon-related deliveries.
