Amazon to lay off 9,000 more workers after earlier cuts

Not OP, don't think it's an exaggeration. Even top comp companies were taking in substandard hires during the latest rush.

I'm seeing mid-level backend devs making 350k who e.g. don't know what SQL indexes are. These people are going to get cut, I'm a lot less worried for people who know what they're doing.

Yo where is this? I am not making anywhere near that and am pretty confident in those kind of skills.

Yes, I'd like to hear about where this is as well as a backend dev looking for work.
