I agree with you and I'm afraid that current education doesn't give young people the tools to deal with adversity, challenges and failure. They've substituted self-reliance and responsibility with a focus on blaming. I've met a lot of young professionals who have a hard time standing up for themselves because the perceived risk. They are afraid of losing their jobs if they did. Unfortunately they don't realize that company isn't worth their time given the stress. Certain cultures also teach total obedience to your superiors, and this is toxic as well.
I think it's unfair to single Amazon out because they aren't unique in this. I've seen it at other large co's and in academia as well. There's abundance of company politics, toxicity, emotions and sludge around and to keep sane, healthy, relatively stress-free requires a toolkit of abilities to help navigate.
