Anyone have experience as a cost accountant?

Does anyone have any insight into accounting roles at Amazon, particularly in the Arlington/DC area? An Amazon recruiter reached out about accounting roles, but the posts in this bowl are about Seattle. Trying to decide if the culture/wlb/pay is even worth looking into since it sounds like the interview process is intense. Base pay seemed pretty low in other posts, but they were a year old and for Seattle.

The worst part is reconciliation. People book entries without notes or supports. Basically, you have to go through all and figure out. It is time consuming. Even if you do it well, no one cares because it is not generating any income or revenue. Also, you are not getting paid much because anyone with accounting background can do the job. I would go with specialized role like revenue, SEC reporting.
I personally would probably do okay with a GL acct role. I hate how often in audit that I have no work to do but when I do have work, it's a ton.
They hate it because accounting entries are pretty automated nowadays. Majority of people can’t come up w dr/cr anymore
