> hot job market

You'd be surprised :). Even Amazon isn't eating up engineers like it was a year ago.

No, there is no hot job market, unless you want to take 30-40% pay cut.

amazon is still massively hiring because they already pip people and they have a 4year cliff where people leave willingly cauz they make less.

also frugality is already looped in amazon values so they wont overhire like google or meta

At least retail/Alexa is on some sort of hiring freeze as I heard.

Problem is the same, lot of businesses get cut or deprioritized

Amazon will have to keep hiring ravenously or they will run out of people to feed to the stack ranking fire.
