Amazon founder and long-time CEO, Jeff Bezos, is set to step down<\/a> from his position this summer. Andy Jassy, a highly-respected leader in the company, responsible for Amazon\u2019s successful cloud computing presence, is currently the conglomerate\u2019s incumbent CEO and has already announced a commitment to the production of more games.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Last year, Amazon pulled the plug<\/a> on Crucible, a hero shooter that just couldn\u2019t secure a dedicated player base or widespread publicity despite its three multiplayer modes and sizable roster. In that same breath, however, Amazon revealed Luna<\/a> <\/span><\/span>\u2014<\/span><\/span>\u00a0a new cloud gaming service that looks to rival Stadia. But serious issues within the company\u2019s Game Making Division were illuminated in January when Bloomberg<\/a><\/em>\u00a0covered the toxic, misogynistic culture that took place at Amazon Game Studios.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cFour female game developers say their worst experiences of sexism in the industry were at Amazon,” states the report.\u00a0“They shared stories of being ignored and undermined by male executives and say they were eventually driven out of the company.” In addition to these issues, many development teams were understaffed and neglected.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

According to an email sent to Bloomberg<\/em> by Amazon Game Studios head, Mike Frazzini, the company has no tolerance for dangerous or demeaning work cultures and will work to combat such claims, \u201c<\/span><\/span>We\u2019ve learned and improved a lot along the way, myself included, and we will continue to do so.\u201d Similarly, incumbent CEO Andy Jassy voiced that despite the studios\u2019 less-than-ideal journey to this point, there is still success waiting on the horizon.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

How do you feel about Amazon’s foray into the ever-growing world of game creation? Do you believe that the newly appointed CEO will make much-needed changes to workplace culture and the game development process? Make\u00a0sure to sound off\u00a0in the comments below.\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
