Ex Amazon SDE here. Did you fail to notice the incredible turnover rate among engineers? Most stay less than 18 months. (I've seen the real numbers from tools that mine employee IDs and join date).
- jhall1468 9y agoActually, average tenure at Amazon is closer to 12 months. Google is pretty close to that. Tech sector is notorious for it's low tenure. It's easier to get paid bt job hopping then promotions.
- felixgallo 9y agoI'd be interested in seeing those numbers. Could you post them somewhere? Anecdotally, I haven't seen anything like that in my org.
