Amazon has initiated job cuts in its Music and Games divisions, affecting more than 27,000 employees. The job cuts in the Games division, which amount to about 180, were communicated via an internal email and are part of a larger layoff strategy, similar to moves made by Google and Meta. The company is focusing on free streaming games offered with Prime and is restructuring its games unit, shutting down two business units, including Crown, a channel on its own livestreaming site, Twitch. CEO Andy Jassy continues to drive cost reduction efforts across the company.
