depends. for fresh grad new hires I would say yes but said grads don't know any better. mandatory weekly on calls, no dedicated workspaces (first come first serve desks), weekly recap meetings with god knows how many managers and team leads they have. But once you "pay your dues" so to speak at Amazon and you get senior status you pretty much dont' do anything. This coming from a buddy of mine that worked there. Current amazon is pretty much riding on the backs of oblivious junior devs and LLMs/AI.
