Jeff Bezos is about to step down as Amazon CEO after 27 years in the position. The new executive officer will be Andy Jassy – the man behind the success of the Amazon cloud business.

According to an email to his employees, Bezos said the reason for his resignation is to spend more time on his new products:
Answering analysts and reporters, Brian Olsavsky – Amazon CFO, assured that Jeff Bezos will continue to contribute to many areas of innovations and product development.

Olsavsky said Bezos would still have a say in decisions that aren’t easily changed or reversed.

After a huge surge during the pandemic, Jeff Bezos saw his net worth increase to over $180 billion.
Bezos turned 57 years old this January and here is what he said to his staff:
