There are brilliant devs at Amazon. There are poor devs at Amazon. The quality of the dev has very little bearing on promotion and hiring from what I can tell.

There are brilliant devs at Amazon. There are poor devs at Amazon. The quality of the dev has very little bearing on promotion and hiring from what I can tell. Story telling and document writing appear to be the only things that are graded on a scale, everything else is pass/fail.
- bombolo 4y agoI worked with a very mediocre former amaxon developer who felt like he was god's gift because he had worked there. Avoid if possible.

- bombolo 4y agoSeems we are rubbing former amazon developers the wrong way
