Amazon has laid off approximately 200 employees from its Fulfillment by Amazon (FBA) support team, which assists merchants using the company’s warehousing and delivery services, as confirmed by a company spokesperson to The Information on Thursday.

"Following a recent review, we've eliminated some roles in the FBA organization," the spokesperson said, adding that support for selling partners would remain unchanged despite the job reductions.

The latest layoffs come as Amazon leans more heavily on AI-driven tools to assist merchants. In September, the company introduced Project Amelia, a chatbot designed to help sellers track and manage inventory within Amazon's logistics network.
