You have the inside track so I'll defer to most. But on /r/eero the devs (specifically one in particular) always responded and were very engaged with the community. That sort of thing is only possible in a small passionate company. I don't trust any Amazon hardware in my home so I am curious if they're as good as they were. What is your experience like working there?

Addendum: looks like rank-and-file employees were screwed and the execs cashed in hard[1]. There was a lot of attrition after that. So I guess Amazon didn't have to lay people off, they did it themselves.

This was all before my time. I don't have the impression quality has deteriorated from past gens of the product, quite the opposite from where I'm sitting.

Working there is interesting. AMZN corporate can be a drag but I imagine that's true for any FAANG or part of any large company.
