I'm not quite sure where you get those ideas. I've only ever said that Amazon absolutely has a comp structure designed to kick people out within four years, and that I thought their stated pip failure rate of ~30% was low based on my personal experience there and elsewhere. I do tend to think individual managers are people. This is true. We are, however, so off the plot of this thread getting into ad hominem territory now that we're moments away from Godwin's Law. Best to leave it here.
