Many others disagree with you because of various reasons.
PS: I'm with you though; prefer not to have ex-Amazon because somehow that company can turn good people into sharks preying on others when moved on. Maybe because in order to survive there one must learn and adapt, therefore "becoming" as ruthless/cutthroat as them.
- rnk 4y agoThat feels contradictory. You disagree with the person who says they don't like to hire ex-amazon, but you yourself prefer not to hire ex-amazon. Sorry, what's your point?
- hello_moto 4y agoI don't think it's contradictory. I mentioned that there are plenty companies would love to hire ex-Amazon as the earlier poster suggested due to Prestige (among other thing). I merely stating that we (me and the poster I replied) might be the tiny minorities.

- trts 4y agoI happily hire ICs that have been successful in the past at Amazon; they tend to have high output, good analytical / soft skills, and are generally pretty happy to not be at Amazon anymore. the middle management layer is way more mixed, and where a lot of the putative toxicity comes from. Those people often bring the bad part of Amazon culture with them (especially those from more recent vs. earlier years).
