Technology giant Amazon has announced job cuts affecting hundreds of staff at its cloud computing business.
Amazon Web Services, AWS, has been growing and now represents 14 per cent of Amazon’s total revenue, according to its latest financial report.
The company has been shifting its strategy with physical stores, Amazon Fresh, which were launched in 2020.
On Tuesday, it said it would remove its self-checkout system called Just Walk Out from all the stores.
The firm said the latest job cuts impact several hundred roles in sales, marketing and global services and a few hundred roles in its physical stores technology team.
