What do Program Managers in Amzn do
Same as title. Wanted to understand the day to day duties of a Program Mgr in Amzn. Do they have any decision making powers, do they get involved in designing business/tech logic or it's simply a fancy courier service ?

Actually PM Run programs 👀
On a serious note. Whenever some issue/need pops up. Amz will create a PM role, PM will be responsible for gathering requirements and create solutions. In operations world they'll try to automate the solution and the role will be elimated or PM will be assigned with some other work
Example : if tomorrow Amz wants to launch cab services in India. One program manager will be hired and he will start working on all fronts including creating org structure, sourcing cabs, pricing, bla bla bla... Whenever he/she sees issue within the program one more PM takes birth..
One liner. PM are bunch of problem solvers with multiple areas of expertise.
