Amazon Web Services CEO Matt Garman has a ‘warning’ for employees: “The first and very most important thing we’ve got to do is…”
Amazon Web Services CEO Matt Garman delivered a pointed message to staff during an internal meeting, criticizing the cloud computing giant for slow product rollouts ahead of its flagship Reinvent conference in December. “The first and very most important thing we’ve got to do is make sure that we deliver on the roadmap that we have,” Garman told employees, according to a meeting transcript reviewed by Reuters.
The AWS chief emphasized that customers expect immediate access to announced products rather than mere pre-announcements. “Increasingly, we’re finding that when we launch innovative new things at Reinvent it’s valuable if we can actually launch them, as opposed to just pre-announce them,” Garman said during the all-hands meeting.
