Amazon and the endangered future of the middle manager

Publishing timestamp: 2024-12-15 09:06:12


Summary

Amazon CEO Andy Jassy's decision to bring workers back to the office full time was a major post-pandemic work headline. Amazon's focus on individual contributors could lead to cutting as many as 14000 manager positions. This move reflects a broader trend towards leaner, more efficient organizational structures driven by the need for cost control, innovation, and competitiveness. The future of work may involve fewer middle managers as technology and AI play a larger role in decision-making and task management.
