I worked at Amazon for 8 years; just left last month. Although the company has ~50K engineers, teams were made up of 8-10 people and orgs generally of around 200 people. The size of the company didn’t matter. Amazon could function just fine without job levels, and IMO it would function better. The VP doesn’t need to know the individuals. They can let the org leaders to deal with those details.
