Amazon to Cut 95 Washington Jobs Starting in December 2026

Summary
Amazon told Washington state officials that about 95 employees at sites in Bellevue, Redmond, Seattle, Pasco and Sumner will be laid off, with separations running from Dec. 7, 2026 to Jan. 25, 2027.
15 remote workers in Washington are also affected, and Amazon said the cuts are permanent rather than tied to a relocation or outsourcing of operations in the state.
Amazon said workers received at least 90 days' notice—more than the 60 days required under WARN—and can avoid separation if they secure internal transfers before their exit dates.
None of the affected employees are represented by a union, Amazon said, and the company will continue wages and benefits through separation while providing details on severance and benefits directly.
