"It's 2017 and Amazon only has one woman among its 18 most powerful executives":
Even in a technology industry rife with gender disparity, Amazon’s leadership group stands out among the most powerful companies for being almost exclusively an all-boys club.
Of the company’s 18 most powerful executives, 17 are men. At the top sits Amazon CEO Jeff Bezos and his two deputies: Jeff Wilke, the CEO of its consumer business, and Andy Jassy, CEO of Amazon Web Services.
