Amazon and Google are reportedly continuing to evaluate their businesses, leading to further layoffs, according to statements from their CEOs.
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy has said that the company had to eliminate 27,000 corporate roles as part of a reprioritisation of resources.
Google CEO Sundar Pichai has stated that the company is reviewing every aspect of what they do as part of their efforts to re-engineer their cost base permanently.
Both Amazon and Google are striving to find ways to generate revenue, operating income, free cash flow, and return on invested capital in the long run.
