Everyone I've ever known in real life to actually work there (it is more than just a couple of people) has told me that its not a place a person should want to work. I've never heard of literally everyone I know who works for a company has nothing good to say about it at all....especially from other engineers. So I always ignore the recruiters when they send me linked in messages and emails.

Same. I try to keep in mind that anecdotes do not evidence make. However, when my sample size is in the high thirties and I still do not have one positive opinion, something smells.

There is long standing evidence that Amazon actively manipulates social media to try to paint working in the warehouses as a great job.

HN tends to have an outsized representation of prospective H1B candidates.

Added up, it's really hard to take any of the positive comments from "Amazon Employees" seriously in this post.
