Jeff Bezos' rocket company Blue Origin is cutting 10% of its workforce. The move comes just a month after the debut of Blue Origin's New Glenn rocket, which reached orbit on its first try.

Blue Origin announced plans to lay off about 10% of its workforce — or more than 1,000 employees — nearly a month after the company debuted its first orbital rocket.

Blue Origin has drawn unfavorable comparisons to Elon Musk’s SpaceX, which leapfrogged many startups to become the world’s most prolific rocket launcher.
