Purely from a SWE/Engineering perspective Amazon is a great company. You get to work on challenging problems daily , work with some great engineers and you end up learning a lot.

But now, a ton of experienced engineers and other seniors are leaving due to bad work culture and outdated LP’s

Amazon LP’s are as outdated as the GunLaws in this country and Amazon as a company needs a complete culture change.

Get rid of pip culture , get rid of shitty LP’s that contradict each other , get rid of stack ranking employees, improve benefits and get rid of senior leadership with Bezos mentality and Amazon can become one of the best companies

…… and then I woke up

  • I'm one of the people who have been mentaly tortured by Amazon manager for 6 months. I smile every time I see 350k sde2 offer from Amazon, it means that other devs heard our collective voices and now Amazon has to pay a premium to hire anyone.
    Unfortunately, Amazon leadership like Andy Jassy and co are too afraid to change anything. They made their billions while mentaly torturing workers, and they don't believe the company will be profitable otherwise despite there being hundreds of examples to the contrary. All they do is ignore the problem and say some nonsense about vocal minority. Keep doing it, morons. In a few years you will have to pay half a mil for a college hire.

    • First they need to lose a shit ton of money. The reason the Satya moment happened for Microsoft is because the company was not going anywhere under Steve Ballmer. It wasn't some happy coincidence.

      Yeah, Amazon has had some trouble, but they are still growing. I don't think they are going to get to Ballmer level incompetence.

    I tend to agree. The key platforms and systems are incredibly well designed and highly functional.
