I'm overweight Amazon but considering selling at least at least half. I don't see innovation and growth coming after Jassy resorted to old school command and control management and has angered the top talent. Contrast Nvidia relies on leadership rather than power and has been able to continue to innovate with flexible work policies. I'm more optimistic moving more money to a company with motivated employees and a leader with a vision for innovation.

    Jassy is a failure grasping at a scapegoat. I hope the board sees this soon and replaces him for the sake of shareholders.

    Update: My investment premise is:

    1. Work has evolved. CEOs who spend resources such as time and energy attempting to run time backwards will eventually hurt profits.

    2. Resorting to authoritarian type leadership is almost always disguising something rotting under the surface.

    1. He’s easily replaced if the stock suffers, so far it looks like the market likes/is indifferent to the bean counter lizard man

    2. Strange, he was the one who built AWS which is Amazon’s cash cow.

      Business is pioneer and innovating data center, cloud, etc still today.

    3. Tech guy here. Every company I know is doing this, if not fully partially. And usually full RTO for new employees

    4. Walk through how you see this move hurting the stock? Its basically a 4D chess layoff round. Amazon’s days of big growth and innovation are over, it’s a $2T market cap company. They are just a cash generation machine now, so putting a galaxy brain spin on regular old cost cutting is a logical move.

      Dont get me wrong, as a human being and remote worker this move makes me scowl, but from a business POV it makes sense.

    5. Amazon used to be customer driven. But now they’re an AI company instead. Trying to fit everything into AI with a tech first approach.
