Did the Amazon CEO Get a Raise?
Yes. Andy Jassy's total compensation rose 30% to $2.1M in 2025, from $1.6M in 2024, per Amazon's SEC DEF 14A filings.
This page answers a common executive-compensation question: Did the Amazon CEO Get a Raise?. The answer draws on SEC DEF 14A proxy statements, the public disclosure mechanism for U.S. public-company executive pay. Every public company must file an annual proxy statement disclosing CEO and named-executive-officer compensation in detail. Why this matters for shareholders: executive compensation is the single most-disclosed governance metric at U.S. public companies, and the Dodd-Frank-mandated say-on-pay vote gives shareholders an explicit channel to express approval or dissent. Reading pay data well — including pay-versus-performance, peer-group selection, and time-vesting structures — is a basic part of stock-by-stock fundamental analysis.
The detailed answer below uses the actual proxy-statement filings, explains how to read them, and translates the executive-compensation accounting into the shareholder-relevant interpretation.

In its latest proxy statement, Amazon reported Andy Jassy's 2025 total compensation at $2,069,861 — up $472,972 (30%) from $1,596,889 in 2024.
Across the disclosed history, Andy Jassy's total pay has run: 2021, $212.7M; 2022, $1.3M; 2023, $1.4M; 2024, $1.6M; 2025, $2.1M. CEO compensation is lumpy year to year because equity grants — the largest component — are often awarded in multi-year blocks rather than evenly, so a single year's jump or drop can reflect grant timing as much as a change in pay philosophy.
