Amazon's Jassy Slams Bureaucracy, Pushes for Meritocracy
2025-03-22
Amazon CEO Andy Jassy is aggressively streamlining management layers and bureaucracy. He emphasized that promotions aren't about building large teams, but about efficient execution. He urged employees to act like owners, stay competitive, and use a dedicated "No Bureaucracy" email alias to report unnecessary processes. Over 375 changes have already been implemented based on employee feedback. The goal is to increase efficiency, fostering a more startup-like environment focused on customer experience and meritocracy, rather than size of team.
