You’re really just implying that if the experience is worse and we are treated badly (aka no company paid off sites to Hawaii or seasons working remotely in Tahoe) the only people at Amazon are there because they aren’t capable of getting better offers.
- cmrdporcupine 6y agoThat I doubt very much. They're there because they're motivated by different things. I wouldn't last at Amazon, from what I have read. But some people thrive with different motivations. The most satisfied Amazon engineers I've spoken to spoke with pride about the pace and intensity of development. Goes for Apple, too. Those people would not be happy at Google. Things move slow there, and most people have little control over tech stack or many design choices at all, TBH. I hear that's better at Amazon. The era of Hawaii offsites at Google is long over.
