I worked there and can vouch for what you said. AWS is built like a house of cards. They just painted it orange and white to make it look cohesive. What's funny though is that the CSS isn't even sourced from one place. They tell front-end engineers to use a dropper tool and to just copy and paste style from other places. DRY is not in Amazon's vocabulary.

Gotta love their leadership principles:

> Frugality (we'll give you a shitty laptop, shitty chair, and a shitty desk.)

> Be right a lot (are you too stupid to forecast the future?!)"

Bryan Cantrill did an interesting deconstruction on Amazon leadership principles.

That was amazingly on point and had me laughing hysterically. Thank you.
