My personal observation having known quite a few Amazon SWEs and interviewed them.
The bad rep is only for the junior roles. SWEs who work at AWS and are high L5+ are pretty solid.
- akhilcacharya 6y agoWhat exactly does high L5+ mean?
- amf12 6y agoSWEs who weren't just recently promoted to L5 at Amazon. They have some experience at that level. Granted, there could be some bias because it's not easy to pinpoint when they were promoted.
- akhilcacharya 6y agoAs a recently promoted L5, what bad rep should I be shielding myself from as a junior?
