Somebody say layoffs?

So I've had 2 hiring managers and several recruiters from Amazon reach out to me about applying for some open positions with the company (android). I completed the coding assessment and now they want me to go through a round of 5 hour interviews next week. Is there a good chance I'll be hired if engineering managers are reaching out to me? I'm really not sure how badly I want to work for them and I don't want to be laid off months after being hired on. Anyone know what Amazon hiring is like?

AWS cloud application architect. Had an on-site interview with AWS a few days ago and just got an email saying they want to talk to me about next steps. The role is cloud application architect but I want to ask them about the senior cloud application architect role. I have all the relevant experience for that role and feel like I’d be a better fit for that senior role. How should I approach this conversation? Is this even possible? Amazon

I was with a telecom company for nearly 28 years. My severance package was 2 weeks pay. They eliminated my positions as they put it. Ridiculous slap in the face.
That's terrible. I'm sorry you went through that.
what’s not too low to you?
2 weeks for each year worked
My last day is coming up due to a layoff. I asked about severance and was told 'we aren't offering one, we are considering the next 2 months tour package ' Um, excuse me? So I can just clock in/out and spend my day looking for my next job right? I feel bad for those that have put 30+ years in and we're told that.
My previous job gave us up to 17 weeks if we were hourly, salaried people got a week per year with no cap AND they helped Management find a new job!
In this market 10-12 weeks would be nice since it would take about that long at a minimum for most people to find a new job, but I doubt many companies would pay that much severance.
