He pointed to Amazon’s principle of “disagree and commit,” which is the idea that employees should debate and push back on each others ideas respectfully
That’s all fine and dandy for ending debate about a stupid roadmap feature, but “disagree and commit” is a different story when you’re asking people to spend 3 hours unpaid in a car everyday.
As a long time Amazon employee, disagree and commit essentially works like this:
Employee: "I'm not convinced this is the best way to do something"
Manager: "Noted, now stfu and do what I say"
Can the Amazon prime boss leave instead?
Why don't they just keep working from home and get fired? Instead of having to quit themselves?
