Our approach
Customer Obsession
“Start every process
with the customer
and work
backwards.”
Long Term Thinking
“Be stubborn on the
vision but flexible on
the details.”
“We are comfortable
being
misunderstood for a
long period of time.”
Willingness to fail
“Invention requires
two things: the
ability to try a lot of
experiments, and
not having to live
with the collateral
damage of failed
experiments.”

Our execution
Culture: Hire
builders, guided by
our Leadership
Principles
Architecture:
Empower
innovators through
self-service tools.
Organization:
Decentralize
authority to single-
threaded teams
that own what they
create
Mechanisms:
Encoded behaviors
that turn ideas into
meaningful
innovations

decisioning by cross-border retail

international shoppers to decide
what to purchase by showing
them the total landed cost of an
item. Total landed cost includes
all taxes, duties, and shipping
costs.”
