Wow, actually shocked to see AWS being one of the leading orgs to get hit. Seems unnecessary considering the scale and profit it makes

The human element in these messages is missing. Earlier messages from CEOs had a human touch. Now they are treating this as business as usual.From the official link: "some may be wondering why we didn't announce this as part of our original 18k layoffs"No, we are wondering why the heck you hired so many folks when you didn't have long term project plans. Your hiring spree is the reason that so many folks will have to deal with unemployment in these brutal market conditions.
