There’s one important difference: with layoffs, Amazon gets to selectively lay off their worse performers. With mass-quitting, the quitters will be the people who will have the easiest time finding a new job, which I bet is mostly the high-performers, not the low ones
Those resignations are layoffs without having to call them that, there’s no downside for the company

The higher paid high performers… They’re not interested in reducing head count as far as reducing staff costs.
So they can boost “value” of office space.
