It's definitely not just an AWS problem, have experienced a lot of this in another Big Tech firm as well. In a relatively newish team, I've just been watching the process creep slowly add to the layers of things that need to be done just to send a simple product out. And there's definitely politics, too - having teams with overlapping responsibilities ending up facing off against each other, directly or indirectly.

I think I'll remember this : "people don't want to touch your foot juice" 😂

I’m currently in tech and like building things but I want to work on real things. Been thinking about leaving tech as well.

Hello, I’d love to hear about your journey. I guess working in tech the way I was was very tangible, but it was just the overwhelming amount of time spent not building it that eventually got to me.
