Amazon Pauses Work on 2nd Headquarters in Virginia

The company has been struggling with weak growth and has recently expanded its cost-cutting plans.

Hybrid work has been choose-your-own-adventure, but now C.E.O.s are making their choices more permanent.

The company indicated the slowing growth and tight margins would continue in the first three months of this year.

The layoffs will focus on human resources and its retail division, Amazon’s chief executive said in an email to employees.

He said the company has a panel that reviews content that might be objectionable, but that cases were not always “straightforward.”
