I spent a good portion of my career in the insurance space, and got to the point I just won't work in that industry anymore. Not only because I think benefits coordination companies like you mention are awful, but also because of the sheer amount of bloat I've seen in that industry. Most major cities have literal towers of offices just filled with insurance workers, many of whom do almost nothing for their salary. I personally know one developer at a large one that hasn't talked to his manager in months, and hasn't done any coding at work for almost as long because he has no tasks to complete, and was told "we're waiting on this project to be approved". He collects a paycheck and doesn't even go into the office. He is one of ten on his team. I think Insurance and banking may be the last of the big corporations you can still get lost in.
So yeah, maybe Amazon can do better at least on the administration side.
