Amazon revealed plans for fresh global job cuts after a draft email was mistakenly sent to staff.
The message, circulated within Amazon Web Services, wrongly said affected workers in the US, Canada, and Costa Rica had already been informed.
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.
