Wondering if anyone here has pause about working with AWS technologies because Amazon is an evil monopolistic entity that exploits their workers?

On the AWS side I not heard any more exploiting of employees than I see daily at Deloitte. I got numerous friends and ex Deloitte employees that started working for AWS and they all that I spoken to don't regret their move.

Pause? Sure.

Everything is moving towards monopolistic!! It does exploit. But it gives solid experience, I am hoping!

I'd rather be a jerk than be left behind
