$AMZN - AMAZON CUTS JOBS IN ROBOTICS DESPITE STRATEGIC FOCUS Amazon has cut a small number of jobs in its robotics division as part of ongoing cost reductions. The company says robotics remains a strategic priority, even as it restructures and trims underperforming projects. The move follows more than 57,000 layoffs since 2022 and recent closures of initiatives like its Fresh and Go stores. Amazon added it will continue hiring and investing in key growth areas despite the cuts.
