Amazon SDE II Interview - Reject with no Feedback

Recently interviewed on-site with Amazon. It went for 6.5 hours including lunch. Overall it didn’t go well - under-rested and underprepared. I found out today that I wasn’t getting an offer, but they won’t give any feedback. Is that common?

Why the fucking optimism? Those interviewers are just playing with our emotions at this point. "Oh, even if you're not a perfect match, we'll downlevel you!" And then nothing happens. What the fuck.

I don't get why you would need feedback. You know your interview didn't go well because you were unprepared. Not receiving feedback sucks. But in this case, I think it's pretty obvious the reason they didn't extend you an offer. (You being unprepared)
