No way not doing RTO

I hate this place so much, but the pay is nice. We will fight RTO to the bitter end, and we will win. Otherwise, no choice but to deploy next steps, no going back now.

Extra Extra: Cloud Company Demands On Prem Employees

Jassy's addicted to shareholder short-term approval at the risk of the long-term company. If you are a middle manager, expensive and/or old then you have a target on your back! Better to plan - at least 1yr emergency fund. People will leave due to... — read more

Time to clean up house!

If Amazon is going to get rid of people, then get rid of the right ones who don’t do a damn thing all day. They’re the same people who complain about the work yet spend half the day on smoke breaks, messing around, and not pulling their weight... — read more 

Beggars, aren't we all?

That's clearly not for me

I work at Amazon/AWS. In general it's been a good run but the last year has been really tough. Yesterday's announcement about 5 day RTO made me realize one fact: I don't see myself as part of Andy Jassy's Amazon. I don't know when that day will come... — read more

Andy Jassy today!

"So, we're asking each s-team organization to increase the ratio of individual contributors to managers by at least 15% by the end of Q1 2025. Having fewer managers will remove layers and flatten organizations more than they are today. If we do... — read more
