I’ve seen similar situations up close multiple times before. This guy has been at Amazon for 20+ years.

He is going to intentionally implement A LOT of Amazon culture. He is going to find the Amazon people that work there, pull them closer to him, and then hire away a bunch more of his buddies from Amazon.

Think about it this way. Do you think he’s going to get there and go “we’re switching to a four-day workweek! And everyone gets a 20% raise!” Not going to happen.

If I was at Flexport and didn’t buy in to the Amazon culture I’d start polishing my resume.
