Below certain level x amount of people must be terminated from employment. It can be subjective, that is the thing. Performance is subjective. You could be doing great but if not as good as rest, pip
They're so horrible 😢
It’s bot really that you’re underperforming, they just need to fire someone.
They might list your reasons like “low number of lines merged”, “took one day to merge a PR”, “didn’t do to many code reviews” etc
Leadership has told directors/SVP that we will not take in more tasks until we secure headcount to execute without straining the team and risking burnout.
Leadership is also very involved and will do anything to help engineers succeed and grow - we have a lot of really smart tenured folks on the team willing to mentor anyone that needs help.
I’m an SDE and I strongly advocate for my team, but I wouldn’t leave my org because of the uncertainty of other managers at Amazon. DM me if you want an interview.
