Trimming Recruiter Rolls Makes Sense
From a corporate perspective, trimming the recruiter rolls makes sense. Amazon’s layoffs are intended, after all, to curb the overenthusiastic hiring conducted during COVID-19’s peak demand and momentum. Reducing the number of recruiters falls in line with the notion of adding fewer people to AWS.
Also, Amazon and AWS have remained under a hiring freeze since November, which coincides with the last round of Amazon layoffs. As such, Amazon is likely thinking that paying people not to do their jobs doesn’t make sense in the long term.
But there’s an even more unfortunate side to the layoffs at Amazon.
