(NasdaqNM:AMZN - news) said on Friday that it had cut 150 people, or about two percent of its total workforce of 7,500. ``About 150 people are leaving the company. This is the result of an ongoing review,' said Bill Curry, a spokesman for the Seattle-based company. Curry said the layoffs were spread throughout the company, but would not give further details. ``Our overall strategy has not changed one iota,' he said adding that the company is still growing across the product lines and services it offers in the geographies its serves. The company did not say whether the job cuts would result in a charge against earnings, and a spokesman was not immediately available. Amazon's stock fell 6-13/16 to 60-1/8 on the Nasdaq.
