Bezos stepping down from Amazon

Post by TC Talks » Tue Feb 02, 2021 4:35 pm

SEATTLE -- Jeff Bezos, the founder of Amazon, will step down as chief executive of the e-commerce giant, turning over the reins to the company’s longtime cloud-computing boss Andy Jassy.

Bezos, who also owns The Washington Post, will transition to the role of executive chair in the third quarter.

Will much change there or is this just him going to an oversight role with the ability to make a phone call and get something done?

He's in a bowling league, hates golf, and is unable to go into a bank at the moment.
