Amazon is creating 600 new technology jobs in Dallas and will lease an additional 100,000 square feet of space in Galleria Towers as part of the Seattle-based company’s national tech hub expansion.
Dallas is one of six cities where Amazon said Tuesday that it will create a total of 3,500 jobs, including 2,000 in Manhattan, 500 in Phoenix, 200 in San Diego and 100 each in Denver and Detroit.
The 3,500 jobs pay an average of more than $150,000 per year, and the multiple-city expansion came after Amazon decided last year to drop its plan to put half of its second headquarters in New York’s Long Island City due to mounting opposition from the Queens borough.
