Personally, I think Amazon's successful despite their workplace culture, not because of it.

Hard to say. For me it really comes down to they do not give a shit about their employees. Not at all. You can say that about other companies, but Amazon sets the bar very very low.

It seems to me it's pretty much like the Army.

Push people hard, a lot will give up, but whoever remains is pretty strong and performant (for how long who knows, of course)
