Tech jobs encompasses CS grads in roles beyond just engineer. Amazon experiences attrition rates of 30% per year plus a 5% rate of "top grading" mandated every six months. So right away, we're looking at tens of thousands of roles to fill if there is zero growth.
I don't know why you think these numbers are so wildly impossible if you look at the number of tech roles and Amazon's growth rates pre pandemic.
- akhmatova 4y agoI don't know why you think these numbers are so wildly impossible if you look at the number of tech roles pre-pandemic. And that number was what, specifically? Going by which source? So right away, we're looking at tens of thousands of roles to fill if there is zero growth. I can totally imagine they have 10k+ actual tech rolls to fill per year; just not 68k, and probably not even half that number. Even assuming their ridiculous (and artificially accelerated) attrition rates.
