The AWS manager said.
There are great engineers all over the company.
And the older divisions, like retail and supply chain, are reasonably paced and supported.
AWS was horrible. When I told a manager I was working harder than I'd ever worked, he replied, "Well, I don't want you to work 80 hours a week." And I thought, great, your threshold for overwork is 20 hours past mine.
Also, the pay really isn't great. When I left, my salary went up at least 10% and my time working dropped 20%.
Hire some more people.
You interview for only the smartest, but then you stick them with jobs that many engineers could do fine.
