I took one Amazon interview for an engineering manager role. Literally all they wanted to talk about was PIPs. I’ve been an EM for a while. I have a lot I can discuss on a lot of different topics. Nope. All they wanted to hear about was PIPs. I said I’d never had to do that, the goal after all, is to help people improve before it comes to that. The guy explained that PIPs are a very large part of what their EMs do and are heavily emphasized in the interview process. I politely declined round two.
