It always looks look like that when looking up the ladder but it's not really the case. The top dogs go through shst as well, at any private company.
However, there are people that are luckier than others or find themselves in a good fit every now and then where others have to go through difficult times.
Either way, move for money or growth, I think that things only become sour after you have spent too much time at any one company.
100% agree, problem comes when from day 1 at Amazon,
your treated like cr@p, and it only goes and gets worse,
look, I myself went on the interview journey with them, flew me down to CPT and everything,
nice 4 star hotel all the stuff.
but from my meeting some of the guys interviewing me,
got the impression they hire and fire very quickly, and job security is non existent.
also seems like a very stressful environment, and not good stress from what it seemed.
they apparently treat tech support very bad from a few people I spoke to before going
they kept asking the exact same 4 questions, over and over, like expecting me to give different answers each time.
I mean how many times can you answer are you a chicken? before you go crazy,
or maybe thats the secret there, ask you the same question dozens of times, like your joining a cult or something.
sure some people like them, and sure it depends who is your line manager,
but when so many people around the world all say the same thing, word for world almost.
one has to put aside your doubts, and start seeing them for a meat grinder that chews up people.
and desperately trying to fill open slots from people that burned out, from the stress.
otherwise why advertise all the time, unless they hire/fire people so often that they have to keep spreading good publicity around.
so people don't get wise to their schemes.
ask yourself this, if they so good, why aren't people clamoring to get hired by them?
