For sure, global  companies aren't prepared for long, complex community engagement and strategy how to bring citizen groups on side.  Cleary not Bezos' area of strength nor does he want his soldiers to craft such a strategy if he wants to move fast to make more billions of dollars.

Amazon is a publicly traded company.  His job as defined by law is to maximize a return for those he serves.  He may see fighting with a bunch of nit-wits that don’t want the jobs and tax base as counter productive to his mission.
