Amazon and Google, which I have found to be similar in a lot of respects. Personally I prefer Amazon's versionsets to the monorepo at Google.

Curious why you think Amazon is so different from the other FNG+?

Amazon's culture is very different. It is more microsoft crossed with shark tank and with this strange hint of moneyball guiding projects/promotions.

Yes, I agree with that, but I guess I thought we were discussing more of the engineering culture. I think at both places the biggest factor is your specific manager team, but that the average team at Google is more relaxed and enjoyable with higher QOL.
