I suspect Tim has a pretty good understanding of his ability to influence Amazon's corporate culture: > At that point I snapped. VPs shouldn’t go publicly rogue, so I escalated through the proper channels and by the book. I’m not at liberty to disclose those discussions, but I made many of the arguments appearing in this essay. I think I made them to the appropriate people. And it seems that failed. What's left to do at that point? You can "sabotage" - in the sense of refusing to do your job. You can participate in a system you think is heading in the wrong direction (and with the knowledge you can't really change it). Or you can quit.
