And MS has laid off thousands this year too
And aren't they planning on laying off 16,000 more. https://www.reuters.com/business/world-at-work/amazon-targets-many-30000-corporate-job-cuts-sources-say-2025-10-27/
The Reuters article citing 30k came before the official announcement of 14k. All I’ve heard is that they overestimated. If somehow there’s a followup planned to reach that 30k number, I haven’t heard. It would be weird to pre-announce 16,000 layoffs before doing them.
Yeah. I did realize that. I figure Reuters could be wrong, or there could be a second wave just in time for Christmas.
I want to share this with an ex friend so bad. I just know he will ignore it.
They could give me a 100 billion tax break and it would cost the government less than any of these lazy companies.
What a great return of investment on donating a few hundred million to the Epstein Ballroom.
Anyone know what part of the bill he's referring to? Were corporate tax rates cut or was it more specific to certain sectors?
This economy is the bestest, hottest, biggest, economy in the history of ever! And if it crashes in the next year that’s BIDEN! 🫲🍊🫱 and who the hell is Epstein?
