Andy is a biotch to the shareholders and can never be a true leader. They will yank his leash if his culture change impacts growth. Tech bros at AWS are not going to want to work at the equivalent of a Foxconn factory, just because Andy wants people to come into the office 5 days a week or send a fluffy weekly email. The culture has changed, and those smart enough to be masters of their craft are not as tolerant of corporate greed like in yesteryears where people had pride in the company they work for. Like a skilled plumber, they know they can be easily employed elsewhere with less corporate BS or simply work as a contractor.
While true, it is not exclusive. Amazon employees are not dying when their algorithm accidentally launches an F-35 off the carrier at 3AM or when a mortar round lands 4’ from the tube. I would assert you can find discipline in many corporate environments, airlines, hospitals, companies who deal with hazardous materials.
Darwin helps motivate discipline when shareholders won’t. There is no Darwin for everyday workers at foxconn… oops I mean Amazon.
