AWS marketplace WLB and general culture.
I’ve heard some scary stories. What’s the WLB and culture at AWS marketplace team? TC: 105k + paper money
Severity 2 service disruptions
Extremely high turn over rate for SDMs, 3 mangers have escaped in the past two weeks.
Do you have insight into why? someone reached out to me for an SDM role.
I think it’s at the L8 level? If you can report directly to Ryan that would be great. Otherwise.... High turn over rate on SDEs and constantly under the gun to hire. 5-10 open heads per team. I know some people are allowed to get away with murder, but if other people do anything remotely close they get hammered. High Ops load with sudden demands to shift focus to get something done yesterday that will take 6 months or more to deliver. Plus being understaffed hurts. SDMs getting beat up constantly in the organization ops meeting. One week they say make your graphs exactly like this, you change them to the letter and the next week your criticized in front of the org for having graphs as requested. There’s great people in the org, it would be nice if they would stay.
Avg 5 to 7 sev2 per week is what I heard
What is sev2? What does the numbers 5 to 7 mean? 5 am to 7 pm???
