Totally, I don't know why anyone these days would accept a pitiful $140,000 total compensation pay as a new grad software development engineer these days. That's practically slave labor... \s
People can still be taken advantage of with a mighty sum of money, surprise surprise. Money doesn't make everything right always. It's all about opportunity cost (how long does one's 20s and early 30s last?), the value this young fresh labor provides, how much life is sucked out of their enthusiasm in the process (i.e. jaded expectations carry on for a long time, emotionally), and the naivete combined with ample time to devote to the Bezos cult that's exploited with perks and status that amount to, sincerely, working for the man, in the clearest sense possible (I mean you could up that game with something like Palantir.)
If one's real happy working for Amazon though, I wish them luck and continued prosperity, and a bit of willful ignorance to carry on. For sure it looks real good on the resume for the next gig.
