One of Amazon’s top executives, Jeff Wilke (AKA the “other Jeff”), announced last week that he planned to retire from the tech giant.
In a note to the company, Amazon’s CEO Jeff Bezos (AKA the “richest guy in the world Jeff”) writes of Wilke: “He is simply one of those people without whom Amazon would be completely unrecognizable.”
Wilke was considered by many to be Amazon’s No. 2, running the company’s global consumer arm, including Prime and Whole Foods.
