No WARN filings

No WARN Act mass-layoff notices are on file for Amazon Web Services, INC. among Information & Media employers we track.

Rising disclosed medians

Disclosed medians moved from $159,416 (FY2024) to $168,510 (FY2025) (+5.7%), weighted by this employer's own LCA rows — not a company-wide raise and not role-mix adjusted.
