I worked there for a long time. It’s 100% true. They mostly need low level workers to keep the systems going.

I’ve only been at AWS for seven years, but it’s a completely different company than it was in 2018.

		The hyper growth in AWS is gone, there’s a lot of clarity on what makes money, and a ton of technical debt that requires never ending support.
