It's a great place to work. There, you can no longer say "you never heard it's a great place to work". Sample size of 1, but I love it.

Are you an AWS employee? They're the only people who ever say good things about working at Amazon in my time reading HN.

That's great to hear, but how much did that change for you or others when the holocracy processes were added? I can see where that could totally change how I feel about a job even if I still love my coworkers, the job perks, etc.

My spouse worked there, a couple of steps down from Jeff Bezos. At least parts of Amazon are micro-managed misery.
