> manager's performance review based on whether or not they fired enough people to match a company-wide expected attrition rate is completely bonkers
Amazon is a company which gained a lot from their policy of exploiting the employee. Amazon loves how they can hire mostly subpar candidates and still make profit by driving them with fear. The same is reflected in their mandatory URA policies. Its not a big deal that some great people get fired too. They don't expect such people to stick around for long in the first place. Policies to manage developers and warehouse workers have come from the same person, so you can't expect much difference in philosophy of how to treat employees.
On Blind's Amazon private lounge, there's a popular saying, don't make noise until Amazon starts shooting it's own employees. Anything less is either old or unsurprising.
