This is not true. AWS has all sorts of tools and guidance to help you optimize spend.

I can say a lot of negative things about AWS and the culture from having been there 3.5 years. I worked in the consulting department (Professional Services).

While we wanted the customer to bring more workloads into AWS, we were all encouraged to help save the customer money where we could. No one got brownie points for coming up with a more costly solution than necessary.
