Long-term (career-wise), it seems that Amazon is a better place to grow compared to Google/Facebook/Netflix. I agree that work conditions are better in those companies, short-term. But if someone is a 10x engineer and has excellent social skills, the overall impact one can have at Amazon is IMO highest out of all the engineering companies in the world. It allows a person to progress very quickly and get an insane amount of ownership compared to what is available elsewhere. Your thoughts? TC: 260k, SDE II
Greatest company till agent orange breaks apart amazon ππ
Big talk for 260k TC and that too at sde II π
Care to elaborate?

Yeah because your long and illustrious career as an SDE-2 at Amazon clearly make you an expert on all things impact at Amazon and every other major Software company in the world. Cool. π
So many straw men at Google. But why did my post trigger the need to write what you wrote? Genuinely curious.
By 10x you mean 10 year exp or as productive as 10 engineers?
This post is exactly how many folks at Amazon who can't get into F/G, make themselves feel good. I am tired of hearing just good at Leetcode, we are good SWEs overall, we are good at leadership skills, we do more impactful work etc. Trust me, I am ex-Amazonian and none of those things are true. Recently hired SDE2s were some of the worst engineers I have ever seen. I literally had days of rage, dealing with those idiots. 10x engineer? You sir, will be humbled within a month if you ever join Google.
Damn bro are you okay? Fucking RSUs must of tanked hard.
Sunday evening you are drunk! Cheers!
You still have to survive here π’
