I have heard all shit things about Amazon, but still youtubers in India who work in Amazon, state it as the one of the best, they don't just state but boast about work culture and learnings in Amazon India. But on blind, scene is different, why is it so?
Blind is anonymous, YouTube isn't.
They could choose to stay silent or state just some pros, but boasting takes thing a bit far away.
I don't know who these YouTubers are but how are they going to get views if they stay silent 🤔
Probably because it is their first gig straight outta college. They don't realise the shit they are into, or probably think this is the best they can do. The ones who explore the waters leave the place asap. I mean there are a lot of better options going by TC and tech, especially if you are in the retail org (non-AWS).
Because they sell dreams, not the truth.
Selling hope is still the biggest business in the world
All incompetent people who do leetcode style coding only get piped , I know many who are in amzon for long time. People who got into amazon by mugging solutions need to be piped out from.any company
Leetcode style coding when tested correctly is the best benchmark to test problem solving and coding (at least the implementation part) in a single go. There is a reason this is the benchmark. What other competencies would you test for a SDE 1 that are relevant to the role? The rest is just designing APIs that's easy af and easily coachable.
What does SAP tests on ?
Amazon hire those who have mugged up code to the last dot, even if their is small twist you have added you're gonna fail cause they are also verifying answers from mugged up code from LC
Exactly .that's why when this lc culture started ,there is whole lot of pip. This is all incompetent people who's only skill is to leetcode the problem Then people.cry of being piped
Do people really mug up the code? I don't think that's the case for majority who get piped
In India most companies have crappy work culture with long hours and shitty managers. In the US people have options that really mollycoddle them, in India they don't. In India Amazon is also a top paying employer unlike in the US. Amazon pays 10x as much as many mediocre firms in India - while in the US there are many mediocre companies that pay $100-200k.
2nd part not true, In India there are lot of companies offering more then Amazon.
Agreed there are lot of companies giving great benefits apart from amazon
Because Blind is an echo chamber for cry babies
Kinda true
