Amazon SDE2 -> Senior promotions
Hello Amazon managers, I am seeing too many L5->L6 promo on LinkedIn. Is the bar getting lower or all of them who got, deserve it? Seeing posts from people at Amazon, Alexa, AWS etc. I got SDE2 despite Senior everywhere else. May be need to reinterview for Senior. TC offered - 410 #engineering #software #swe

Amazon is a big place. I know dozens of SDE2s and only one got promoted to Sr. this quarter.

Try looping as sde3 if your system design is strong.

No, the bar is not low. It’s just life.
