Question: is Pat Bajari the reason Amazon hires so many economists? Like has he been instrumental in creating an entire department of economists or a class of job title of economists at amazon? It sounds like “economist” is a job title there (not just chief economist).

I get the sense that at other firms, it’s different. They may all have a chief economist, but I don’t get the sense the “title” of “economist” is as common everywhere as it is at amazon, but is that right? If so, was Bajari key to that? I have a vague understanding tbh

Replying to @causalinf
partly it's Bajari and partly its Greg Duncan at least last time i checked i think both had "chief economist" as part of their title but yeah Bajari has been extremely influential in this
