What tools/collaboration products does Amazon use?

What are the main document and communication platforms, particularly within UX/design? Slack, outlook, google suite, Miro, figma? I know Chime is used for video calls - any other homegrown tools?

Slack for messaging, Chime for vid calls, outlook for email/scheduling, quip for design docs (idk a person who has never used quip at amazon). We have wikis too but they’re usually outdated af.

Order and Obedience. But seriously, tool isn't the key. It's the "unique writing culture", and the creepy 15min silence at the beginning of each review.

I thought people yell at each other and send hand written 🐌 mail?
