Jeff Bezos admits Amazon has 'the weirdest meeting culture you will ever encounter'

Drew Angerer/Getty Images Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos explained during an on-stage interview on Friday the strange meetings Amazon holds. Every meeting requires a well-crafted six-page memo which the whole room sits and reads at the start of the meeting. Bezos banned PowerPoint years ago and explained why the memo-driven meeting is far superior. If you go to work as an executive at Amazon, no matter what your expertise, you will be required to become a good writer, and a good reader, in order to lead the meetings necessary to do your job. And Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos fully admits that this will likely be 'weird,' he explained during an on-stage interview at the George Bush Presidential Center on Friday.See the rest of the story at Business InsiderNOW WATCH: Google, Apple, and Amazon are in a war that no one will winSee Also:Costco employees share their 9 best tips for getting an even better deal on your next run to the storeDisney World cast members share the 7 annoying things they wish park-goers would stop doingThis Air Force combat controller died alone while fighting insurgents on a mountaintop in Afghanistan — now he's being awarded the Medal of HonorSEE ALSO: At Amazon, Jeff Bezos has strict instructions for crafting the perfect memo — and he said it should take days to write SEE ALSO: These ex-Facebook and Google engineers are helping companies kick abusive people off popular internet sites
