Bezos banned PowerPoint at Amazon

Imagine if Chuck did the same thing here? We would have several levels of middle management who'd have no idea what to do with themselves. They would scramble to find something to do, and since PowerPoint is their whole purpose in life, imagine the panic that would set in? It would be fun to watch, that's for sure. Maybe we can start a petition...

People in Information & Cyber Security (ICS) freaking live on powerpoint. The large the better and means you are a "productive" person.

No lie....today I was tasked to create a PowerPoint to summarize what was presented by someone else on their PowerPoint. The level fuckary around here is unreal. Incredibly high paying jobs that do nothing to create/refresh PowerPoints week after week.....most of which don't even get looked at by the recipient. They are just brag books to say "hey boss, we're doing something down here!!!"

Banning PP is hero level stuff, but Bezos is still sleazy.

No we at Amazon simply don’t do slides. If we need to tell a story, we do just that. Need a visual? We write one pagers.

Best thing since leaving wells!

So they replaced it with Google slides? Or OneNote or Teams Presentations? Many ways to skin a cat and execs need their pretty pictures

If we did that we could get rid of the entire “In House Agency”. That entire group is there to do PowerPoints for upper managers.

If that happened here the entire Service Now as a knowledge base plan would go out the window. Their highest level end user training is a ppt.
