Some things I found interesting from Amazon CEO Jeff Bezoss annual shareholder letter. Pay To Quit: following Zappos lead, Amazon now offers employees $2,000 to quit every year. The reward goes up $1,000 per year until it reaches $5,000. Drone Delivery: The Prime Air Team is testing the 5th and 6th generations of their aerial vehicle delivery technology. They are currently designing generations 7 and 8. Frustration Free Packaging: Amazon has eliminated 33 million pounds of excess packaging to date. The Mayday Button: Tap a button on a Kindle Fire HDX and get video tech support. To date: Mayday Tech Advisors have received 35 marriage proposals, helped order pizza 109 times, sung happy birthday to 44 customers and been serenaded by customers 648 times. AWS launched 280 significant services and features in 2013. In the past 8 years amazon has lowered prices 40 times. Related favorite Bezos quote: Your margin is my opportunity.
