> I went to one of the listed "second-tier universities" and work at FANG (and to be clear, not Amazon),

And in what way exactly is Amazon different?



Not the same reputation and prestige.


Why?That is rampant and naive credentialism.And in the wider world (even in in the tech world) a run of the mill grunt worker bee at Amazon is the same than her peers at Google et al.If the company gives the prestige to YOU and not the opposite, then either you are not that good or your drank the whole Kool Aid jar.


Okay boomer. Just stating my Kool Aid opinion.
