Andy Jassy announced plans for Amazon to increase the ratio of individual contributors to managers by at least 15% by the end of Q1 2025, emphasizing the need to flatten organizations and enhance operational efficiency.
Having fewer managers will remove layers and flatten organizations more than they are today," wrote Jassy, indicating that the goal is to boost agility among teams and enhance the overall customer experience.
Zuckerberg, who has advocated for a leaner management structure, stated that you don't want a system where layers of managers exist without contributing to work efficiencies, emphasizing the need for direct management.
The shift at Amazon reflects a broader trend in Big Tech towards reducing bureaucracy and increasing responsiveness to market demands, thereby fostering a stronger focus on customer needs.
