    Yep. It’s insane every time Jassy says that it’s to increase productivity. It’s so insane that he’s stopped saying that at this point, and now basically says it’s “because I made the call, and you have to follow it”. Amazon claims that they are a data driven, “Day 1” company, but clearly this is not the case anymore, if they ever were.

      Or more “charitably”, this short-term hit to profits is required to stem moves towards more workforce autonomy.
