Amazon revealed plans for fresh global job cuts after an internal email was sent in error to staff.
Workers at Amazon Web Services received a cancelled meeting invite containing a draft message about layoffs.
The email wrongly said affected employees in the US, Canada, and Costa Rica had already been informed.
It was signed by senior vice-president Colleen Aubrey and described the cuts as “Project Dawn”.
Amazon cut 14,000 corporate roles in October and continues to reduce pandemic-era hiring.
Chief executive Andy Jassy has warned some roles may be replaced by AI.
The news followed fresh job cut plans at United Parcel Service, a key Amazon partner and rival.
