Paid $ 450,000 a year / AMAZON engineer resigns, find out why
Michael Lynn

Michael Lynn worked at Amazon, until he moved to Netflix in 2017 as a Senior Software Engineer. At the time, Lynn thought he would stay on Netflix forever. "I was earning $ 450,000 a year, free food and unlimited vacations," he says.

However, when he decided to resign, everyone thought he was "crazy".

"My parents were the first to say I would make a big mistake. My mentor also had objections. He said that I should not resign without first finding another job, because that way I would lose the opportunity to negotiate a high salary with my future employer. "Their views made me change my mind, at least for a short time," he explains.

Lynn says that when he started working for Netflix, he really believed he had found "the best job in the world."


"It was like being paid to do studies similar to those done in graduation programs. "I learned so much every day," he told BusinessInsider.


"Over the next two years, the work started to get boring and mechanical. "Everything was copy-paste," says Lynn.

Then the pandemic broke out. The office was closed and everything I liked in my work, companionship, co-workers, privileges, disappeared. When I first started working for Netflix, I was making money and learning new things all the time. "Now, I're just making money, but I was not developing," he said.

He points out that he felt like he had made the same mistake as he did then on Amazon. Staying in a job that does not suit him.

"I have lost my motivation and performance", he does not hesitate to admit, referring to that period of his career.

Life on Netflix

"I thought my life would end after I left Netflix. I was worried that I would not have a social life, as previously all this was related to work. But the opposite happened. I have met more people starting my own business, entrepreneurs, writers and creators. "Now I feel a deep calm inside me, a strong conviction that everything will go well, even if at the moment no success in the future is guaranteed", he said.
