I have an on site interview with the Kinesis team coming up. How is the team? edit: did some digging and found this: Probably one of the worst tier-1 service teams in AWS. Technically, the basic architecture has fundamental flaws. Recent released features are not really working (working in AWS means good availability and scalable). The culture is crazy. You might not have access to all the design docs and might not be invited to design meetings at all if you are not belong to the elite group. is this still the case? can someone from Amazon check the internal sde survey for kinesis and also their sev2 count If you have knowledge of this team, can you please fill out this quick survey about the team, or just share what you know in the comments on this post https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdL0HjFsdfkB71YZY5n5_1kiZh3-0gCoZcqYIo1konJegTf-Q/viewform The ratings include things like leadership, work life balance, on call, ease of deployments, growth, software quality, etc. if you want to see team ratings for other companies: Google spreadsheet with individual responses updated in real time https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1TwIRuDKrn7J88yYKeqS8a4FXgcbPykb6lvQhTFrKKOM Summary https://docs.google.com/forms/d/12MDHxeOAtI1flruFGBsf2B8H2jTkDPrENB4yDDWvP-o/viewanalytics
It's an over-priced and under-featured Kafka and they didn't even get that right. And I say this as someone who loves AWS.

I dont want to respond just based on the amount of work youre asking us to do
It’s a sub one min survey, trust me. I had to do a 90 minute coding assessment at Amazon... If you’re in sales, you wouldn’t be able to answer it anyway.
Ah yes because as someone that sells literally all of AWSs products and services I have absolutely 0 visibility into other teams 🙄
