How Much Has Amazon Grown Since 2021?
Andy Jassy tells Ben Horowitz and Erik Torenberg that compared with 2021, when he took over as CEO, Amazon's overall revenue is about 80 percent higher, AWS is almost three times bigger, and ads revenue is about two and a half times bigger.
On the retail side, he says Amazon doubled a fulfillment network that had taken 25 years to build, and did it in about 18 months, then built a last-mile transportation network the size of UPS.
