Amazon Cuts Jobs, Deepens Seattle Area Losses
|
8.1
Amazon announced on Jan. 28 that it will cut 16,000 jobs globally, including about 1,400 in Seattle and 700 in Bellevue, Bloomberg reported Jan. 30. A Puget Sound Regional Council report said nearly 13,000 jobs were lost across four nearby counties in 2025, with construction and service-sector roles hit hardest; combined tech layoffs from Amazon, Expedia and Meta are deepening regional labor declines.
Scoring Rationale
Major Amazon cuts and PSRC regional data drive high impact; limited long-term analysis reduces broader strategic insight.
