Jeff Bezos Steps Down from Amazon's Day-to-Day Job as CEO

Jeff Bezos is stepping down as Amazon’s CEO with day-to-day work, according to TMZ. Yes, the billionaire is stepping down to do something a little less stressful. But he isn’t done with the company that made him millions. He did write a letter to his employees saying running Amazon at large is exhausting and all-encompassing, and he's got other projects he wants to go all-in on. He isn't just walking away and leaving the company, but Bezos will still remain as executive chair of Amazon’e board. He will put more of his focus into philanthropy and a few other projects. He assured it isn’t about retiring. It sounds like he just needed a break since he’s been running things since 94.
