Amazon is a far cry from the glory days of the past. 80% of corporate workers are visa workers that spend all of their time managing and maintaining the massive complexity inside the company. There is no leadership principles, its just low level grinding.

There was a time when employees, even line managers and senior engineers, had massive scope and built state of the art systems

I'm not sure, but the first Amazon was most definitely Sears.
