“I recently joined Amazon again. A lot of folks have asked me what it’s like and I’m no expert – but in my assessment, Netflix is like the Olympics of the streaming world and Amazon is akin to the World Cup – it depends on what stage of your career you are at and what skills you want to build. At both places, it was the people I worked with who mattered the most and made all the difference”, her LinkedIn post read.
“In my new role as the Chief Marketing Officer at Amazon Prime Video India, my vision is to blend the goodness of both organisations and foster innovative thinking – it’s always Day 1”, the post further read.
