The job position requires 2+ years of AWS experience. As I explained to the recruiter that I am currently taking a course but lack the requisite 2+ professional years of experience, I received an email during the interview stating they would not be moving forward with my application. The interviewer then informed me that she had sent the email.

- 1.0The worst of the worstPlatform Engineer • Current EmployeeRichmond, Virginia, United StatesJuly 30, 2025Pros: - Very team-dependent; good WLB when you’re not on call.Cons: - Management will put on a show and PIP you for “influence” and “communication” even though you’re already doing your best. - Medical issue? You’ll be PIPed the next review cycle, no matter what your medical issue is. No compassion or empathy. - On-call shifts, long hours troubleshooting with no reward. Never got promoted in the time I was there and barely got any raises every year.
