Amazon is anticipated to cut jobs across its healthcare divisions, including One Medical and Amazon Pharmacy.
According to the source, the number of roles that will be cut might range from 115 to 400, citing a paywalled Business Insider piece.
According to the paper, Amazon officials want One Medical to save another $100 million this year while reducing operating losses.
According to the story, Lindsay declared in a statement to workers that “we will continue hiring providers and investing in teams and technology that will help us provide high-quality and accessible care to more people.”
Amazon announced plans to buy One Medical for around $3.9 billion in July 2022, claiming that the tech-powered primary care provider will expand Amazon’s healthcare capabilities.
Lindsay added that One Medical’s in-person, digital, and virtual care services provide an alternative to the traditional procedures of arranging an appointment, traveling to a clinic, seeing a doctor quickly, and then heading to the pharmacy.
