Jeff Bezos to step down as Amazon CEO, Andy Jassy to take over in Q3

Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos will step down later this year, turning the helm over to the company's top cloud executive Andy Jassy.

Jassy joined Amazon in 1997 and has led Amazon's Web Services cloud team since its inception.

Bezos said he will stay engaged in important Amazon projects but will also have more time to focus on the Bezos Earth Fund, his Blue Origin spaceship company, The Washington Post and the Amazon Day 1 Fund.

[...] Bezos will transition to executive chairman of Amazon's board.

    With the incoming CEO being Jewish, and Biden relaxing immigration rules, I think this will eventually lead to Amazon warehouses following the template of the typical Jew-run warehouse in America

    It is a secret conspiracy for the Jews to convince protestants to mutilate the genitals of their infant males. By keeping this a secret nobody will know that it is happening.
