In my experience, companies are not that great at recognizing and rewarding achievement. So unfortunately, I'll stick to my cynical interpretation. Also, we're talking about dozens or even hundred of people moving on from Amazon here...

Is your opinion the crazy stock grants that are happening right now at big tech companies not due to achievement and instead just political or random?

Google and Facebook offer largeish stock grants when you join the company, no ? Google is also known, to offer some kind of bonuses on merit, but that policy is seen as remarkable in tech.

I'd guess Amazon is more political and/or stingy than the above 2.

Anyway I was not referring to big tech specifically.
