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.

The company, which has offices in Southern California, is eliminating positions in engineering, R&D, and program/project management.
