Amazon Expands Portland Tech Hub and Announces Plans to Create 400 New High Tech Jobs - Press Release

Today Panzer was rudely shaken awake from his afternoon nap by clapping and cheering coming from the Catosphere. Hopping in the Panzermobile, he followed all the noise to the Amazon Press Release Room.  There he found a post about Amazon's expansion in Portland, Oregon.

Amazon has 650,000 workers world-wide.

In the press release Amazon announced the company is adding 400 employees to the Portland, Oregon, Tech Hub. The company already employs 3,500 employees in Oregon. To facilitate the expansion the company will open 84,000 square feet of office space in Portland. The post also includes information about Amazon's financial contributions to Oregon's economy and information about the company in general.

Panzer says, "Hmm ... When Amazon isn't opening new stores, it's hiring new employees."
