I've worked with federal government, and I can say is if rather that they pay private contractors. I used to find all paid government devs sleeping in toilet cubicles all the time. If rather Amazon or the squeeze on its employees to perform than shirt unmotivated public sector management. And this comes from an unabashed hard left big government voter.

For AWS, Amazon does not hire employees that it needs to "squeeze" in order to get acceptable performance. Amazon [1] aims to recruit and keep the best employees, who are talented and driven to build the future. It deploys the resources necessary to do so, and operates in a way that empowers them to innovate and find success. The federal government, in the name of cutting waste and fighting corruption, largely is forced to do the opposite in the IT space (with a few rare exceptions). [1] Not implying Amazon is alone on this; all the big cloud operators do.
