Amazon revealed a fresh round of global job cuts after an internal email was sent in error.
Workers at Amazon Web Services received a cancelled meeting invite containing a draft redundancy message.
The email wrongly stated affected staff in the US, Canada, and Costa Rica had already been informed.
It was signed by Colleen Aubrey, a senior vice-president at AWS, and referenced layoffs called Project Dawn.
Amazon announced 14,000 corporate job cuts in October and continues to reduce pandemic-era hiring.
Chief executive Andy Jassy has warned AI may replace some white-collar roles.
Amazon declined to comment, as United Parcel Service also announced up to 30,000 job cuts.
