It’s fine if you’re in non-aws.

Not true. Devices is ass too

Huh? As in Alexa devices? I get in 10-10:30 and leave 6-6:30. Oncall one week every 2 months. Yeah it’s not cutting edge shit, but we write Java spring services hosted on Lambda.

I am interviewing for a BIE role, but had applied for a GIS Analyst/ Developer role. My goal is to become a GIS Data Engineer. GIS - Geographic Information System.

Hub locker something, not sure

I can't imagine that org is too bad for a BIE role. Still will depend on your team, and you can try to ask your recruiter if they know anything about what people think of your manager/team
