- msgodel 1y agoIt's not like Amazon has been optimizing for high quality engineers to begin with.
- dymk 1y agoI’m of the radical opinion that engineers at Amazon are pretty good, but they’re in a pressure cooker that incentivizes bad work. At minimum, it rarely gives space for people to excel.
- AndrewKemendo 1y agoYou’re making the assumption that these are relevant to the overall goal of Amazon I’d argue that 1 is irrelevant provided the system continued to extract profit at the same or greater margin Amazon lives and dies by not caring about #2 so that’s constant #3 is desirable from Jassy and the boards perspective Seems like exactly what I’d expect from Amazon
- exabrial 1y ago> You’re making the assumption that these are relevant to the overall goal of Amazon not at all! no assumptions made: Their website, technology stack, and SAAS platform is all garbage... yet, they persist in their success to make obscene amounts of money!
- herval 1y agoGiven the business is still growing, even if that’s all they achieve, it’s already a massive win, no?
- exabrial 1y agoPrecisely, I expect their profits to expand, I was strictly speaking of the claim in the title. No doubt they will continue to expand on their current strategies.
