Andy Jassy Begins A New Era for Amazon
Quote from Ndubuisi Ekekwe on July 3, 2021, 10:27 AMAndy Jassy will become the CEO of Amazon on Monday, bringing a new era in the ecommerce giant: "Jeff Bezos hands over Amazon's CEO reins on July 5 to Andy Jassy, creator of AWS, Amazon's cloud computing business. Bezos will stay on as the board’s executive chairman. The Wall Street Journal notes Jassy inherits a $1.7 trillion juggernaut "firing on all cylinders," though the e-commerce giant is mired in regulatory scrutiny and unionization challenges. And the pressure is on for Jassy, since Amazon is the fourth of the five Big Tech firms to go beyond founder control, and the first three — Apple, Microsoft (LinkedIn's parent) and Google's Alphabet — became even more successful under new leadership."
