   Great for UW. He is single handedly destabilizing that department.

    Good for UW. He did nothing except turning his RA at UW to his RA at Amazon.

    I heard several very weird stories about Bajari's adventures at Washington. I'm surprised they allowed him to walk around there this long, assuming some of those stories are true.

    The sum total of his contributions to the department has been interfering with hiring decisions agreed to by everyone else. They gave him too much power in hopes of securing a special relationship with Amazon. It just wasn't a good situation.

    UW is top 40 at best, they don't deserve Bajari anyway.

    Makes sense, he was seriously de-stabilizing the department. That means, no more academic appointments for Pat B? Or someone else will be offering some sort of position?

    He's been a bulldozer in setting up the Amazon economists group. His approach is highly effective in the corporate environment but doesn't translate well to academe. That's part of the reason he went to Amazon in the first place.

    Taking credit for other people's work? I'm sure there's a lot of that in academia too.
