I agree. I have worked for a lot of FAANGs and nobody I knew ever went to Amazon.
I was partway through agreeing to an interview request from Amazon last year when my research turned up how stingy their 401k match is. Similarly their stock vesting schedule is awful compared with everybody else.
It's not that I desperately needed that extra bit of money on top of the perhaps generous salary (no sum was named).
It's that being stingy about that stuff indicates to me that they will be less than generous in every possible situation, say if I need time to deal with a health issue or a family emergency.
