I notice that, with this and other layoffs, they euphemistically talk about "removing layers" - but in actual practice they're typically only removing the very bottom layer (a bunch of actual workers).

Amazon had a serious issue if they truly had 16,000 managers to layoff. Personally I think this is just company speak for removing people they want to get rid of regardless of their role, even if they were extremely competent & productive but had the misfortune be on a dud project. Since this Amazon I would be surprised either if there was plenty people let go who were victims of vindictive performance reviews by blame shifting managers.
