I think it is worth knowing and adds perspective to the article. The pivot process had just started when all this happened, and I was not offered pivot.
At Amazon it is encouraged to strive for the highest quality despite the tension created. I actually object to their suggested methods in that regard. I think it is better to have social cohesion both within and between teams, but that is not how you are trained at Amazon to deal with things.
I was encouraged to push back on things that I did not feel productive. It wasn't done out of a desire to rebel, but to do as was desired of me. My personal preference is to just do the best I can to keep stress down and accept things for the sake of happiness of everyone rather than make a big deal of anything.
