Comment on Ask HN: Tell me your stories of taking lower paid work to be happier

Comments

Joined Amazon as an SDM and left in 3 months. Took a 30% pay cut, looking back after 3 years, couldn't be happier. At Amazon, felt like I was in a Squid Games like environment, with the Leadership Principles thrown in your face to justify any and all actions. Switched to a healthcare related company, where people seem genuinely driven to build products and care about your colleagues.
