Imagine the lawsuits from something like this. Company's hiring people to meet a quota while planning to fire them. That is like borderline violating someone's human rights in terms of psychological manipulation.


Yes, there will be psychological issues from a short stint at a large company. But changing job is not just emotional, and affects other people too.

1. Would having a big company name (FAANG) on a CV be a good thing for finding future jobs?

2. Would the income from FAANG encourage fast-forwarding other life goals, such as starting a family?

3. What about foreigners who need the job in order to keep a visa? If losing the job means leaving the country, that new family might be separated.

Refusing to hire migrants at all isn't an acceptable solution either. There are many talented people who are doing everything possible just to have a chance to live in the country, who are systematically excluded by recruiters and HR. The labour market is not a capitalist free market.


Amazon knows very well how to protect itself. Most of the times you are so fed up that you will leave yourself when you are in Focus/Dev plan.
