Even if it is listening, based on the article, it seems the current CEO wants Alexa itself to be profitable. He doesn't want another division of Amazon to be profitable because of Alexa.
From an article I remember reading like 6 months ago, it's not even doing that. They thought people would use their Alexa for shopping, very few people did that.
