Years ago I interviewed for Amazon. I found out that on a desired team size of 8, there were only 3 left, where the other 5 who were no longer there, as I was told, were poor performers. I didn't take the job.

I guess at AWS, "poor performer" could potentially mean one of the best engineers in the world.

10 years ago potentially. Today the best engineers won’t take a job there so the bar has fallen quite far down market.
