Yeah, that’s fair. Amazon is a large company so I’m sure people’s mileage varies. The pay is the sacrifice there. I get paid really well, but not nearly as well as I would at a FAANG. I’m okay with that because I value work/life balance and others things more than the pay, but I completely understand why folks work at those places.

    Also, for what it's worth, my experience is that Amazon does not have worse work/life balance than your average tech company. Some of the managers even push you to take your time off. You might work longer hours some days or weeks when a big thing is coming due or a big problem erupts, but that's true everywhere.
