Run… run far away

I’ve had the opportunity to work in multiple technical organizations across my career. I spent three decades of full-time employment. Amazon is by far the most challenging, and that the expectations are high, the resources are short, you’re expected to be scrappy and get more done than you ever thought possible But at the same time you’re surrounded by amazing and brilliant people, and you learn a tremendous amount by working there. Yes it can be a meat grinder but at the same time the experiences you get there are like no other experiences you can get in anywhere else in such a short amount of time

Went through multi-day loop for L5 SA and felt confident in my interactions. Presentation went well with no lack of answers for follow up questions. Just found out 6 days later I will not be receiving an offer, and it is policy to not provide feedback of gaps or reasons behind no offer. Also found out they ask you not to reapply for 1 to 2 years for same role. Would anyone recommend an alternate path for feedback on interview (outside of recruiter) and is the 1-2 year policy true?
