Let's say one wants to stick with one company and focus on gaining valuable experience and climbing the engineering ladder, what would you recommend?
I heard Google's promotion process is a but weird/slow and incentives building complex and useless stuff. And both things seem bad.
At the same time you'd probably learn better engineering practices and maybe people say it's slow growth because they are coasting?
At Amazon it seems like there is a nice focus on the usefulness of the stuff being built, plus there's a lot of new stuff being built with lots of opportunities for impact etc. I've also seen people with quite a fast career growth here. At the same time, the "scrappiness" sometimes feels like it's too much and makes you wonder if you're spending your time in a productive way.
In answering, please don't take perks/pip into account but just focus career growth (climbing ladder) and learning (all learnings, not just clean code) factors.
Comments with are appreciated.
