Let's say software engineering ability translates positively to Jedi ability.
If you take the average Amazon engineer and average Microsoft engineer and turn them into Jedis, who would win in a fight?

Amazon: Hires easily at junior level, but PIPs hard at all levels, generally SWEs > 3 years are great.
Microsoft: Junior level hiring bar is bit higher, but no performance enforcement. Good engineers leave by 2-3 years for better opportunities/TC and SWEs > 5 years are generally coasters.
Netflix and FB are more like Sith.
