Feels like every one of my boss in hierarchy up-to l8 are not efficient at all! Especially the product managers. This is really frustrating me.

Due to recent org restructuring, They are new in the space our team works on.

What triggers me is that they are so slow in grasping the new concepts. They can not understand the design documents due to their own gaps of understanding. They sometimes do not even read entire documents

And then provide feedback - I think doc can be made more clear, etc ! Like come on ! This is a complex space, you need to put your minds at work to grasp it.

What to do? Whom to complain #amazon

    Sounds like you need to learn how to communicate effectively. Try identifying where their lack of understanding or the things that aren't clear and explain them in terms they understand. If you can't explain the shit you do to a reasonably intelligent person who isn't a software engineer, you don't understand your services enough.

      I have tried a lot of ways to educate them. They just don’t want to do their share of efforts in diving deep at all. Always come to doc review completed unprepared and provide feedback without reading it all.

      Every review session ends up with me educating them about some component of our system which is unrelated to the doc.

    Run don’t walk from Amazon and it’s awful political mis-management.
