Diluted ownership is the biggest complaint I hear from ex Amazon folks. Everyone wants credit but nobody wants the pager.

Feels like rose tinted glasses tbh. You're forgetting the reorgs and stack ranking stress that made you want to leave in the first place.

Fair, I'm not saying I want the TT anxiety back. Just weird missing the intensity.

Same thing happened to me after I left for a startup. Ownership just hits different when it's your neck on the line at 2am.
