Former AWSser. I can totally believe that happened and continues to happen in some teams. Officially, it's not supposed to be done that way.

Some AWS managers and engineers bring their corporate cultural baggage with them when they join AWS and it takes a few years to unlearn it.

Thanks for the perspective. I was beginning to regret posting this after so many people claiming this wouldn’t happen at AWS.

Amazon is a huge company so I have no doubt YMMV depending on your manager.
