When Empire Building Goes Wrong
When Empire Building Goes Wrong
Very good pay Excellent knowledge in the operation of highly available software
- Very little to no influence from the open source community.
- Very difficult for an AWS engineer to work on public projects.
- Empire building: Useless products are developed, feature deadlines without real added value, constant changes of mind.
- Product extremely inflexible.
- Use of outdated internal tools, workaround after workaround. It's very difficult to make progress on one's own work, even though the task is trivial.
Durchleuchtet die Produkte genauer: Wenn ein Produkt nach mehreren Jahren nicht genutzt wird oder keinerlei Gewinn oder neue Features produziert, sollte es eingestellt werden.
Mitarbeiter, die schon häufiger Beschwerden wegen schlechtem Führungsstil erhalten haben, sollten nicht in wichtigen Führungspositionen sein. Hier sollte eine rigidere Abstrafung von oben erfolgen.

It went well, with half an hour for leadership principles and the other half an hour for coding and system design. It’s a great experience overall. System design, they expect more clarity.
