Andy Jassy used to lead AWS before becoming Amazon's CEO.

AWS has a reputation of being a difficult place to work, even more so than Amazon's other divisions.

So no, I don't think anything will change.

Yes that’s why I thought it odd to say the AWS devs have it hardest in the whole company. It’s not a competition though it always feels a bit silly to pretend back breaking physical labor is easier than sitting in an air conditioned office in a chair.
