Amazon lays off hundreds of retail employees

Original: Amazon layoffs hit hundreds in retail; Seattle impact unclear

Amazon is carrying out layoffs affecting hundreds of employees in its retail division, according to local Seattle news reports from KIRO 7 and MyNorthwest. The company has not detailed how many of the cuts will land at its Seattle headquarters, and the local impact remains unclear. The move is the latest in a series of job reductions at the tech giant as it trims costs across parts of its business.

Why now: Amazon's ongoing cost-cutting is directly affecting workers, and Seattle residents are watching for local job losses.
