“Cleaning up the mess” is quite a charitable take.<p>Jassy has thoroughly destroyed trust in senior leadership, first with layoffs, blunt hiring freezes, and a truly chaotic rollout of RTO, RTH, RTT, etc.<p>I’ve never seen morale so low.
They keep sniping at Bezos for his “never ending vacation” and “permavacation” - uhhhh - that’s called retirement.<p>And the CEO is always cleaning up the prior guys mess. The next one will be cleaning up Jassys mess
Jassy seems pretty out of his depth, and the show seems to be run by his lieutenants. They're busy fighting among themselves, the hoped for RTH mass quitting didn't happen, and generally the house is very messy.<p>There's going to be more bloodletting. Why does Amazon have Wondery AND Audible podcasts? Why Athena AND Redshift? Fresh and Go and Whole Foods? There's a ton of "synergies" post-Bezos that can go.
