Hi, I would be joining FB London soon ( SDE - e5) but I want to return back to India after 1-2 years. It would be even better if I can work from FB offices in India so that I don’t have to move to UK at all. Can you please share the details if you have information regarding the following questions: 1) Does FB have any SDEs working from offices in India ? 2) if not, Does Facebook have any plans to open engineering office in India ? How soon ? 3) Does FB allow working remotely, where I can work out of India offices and occasionally travel to UK to be with the team for a few weeks ? I am really confused as I really want to work at Facebook but my situation requires that I stay back in India. I can work at FB London for an year at max, but will have to move back after that.
Wow... rare case of someone wanting to stay in India.
They are opening a new office in Bangalore in a couple of months

Yoe? Tc?
1) No 2) won't answer 3) Generally no unless you're extremely senior and/or in very specific teams/positions (some E8+ who have very specific roles and some kernel folks work remotely), and even in these cases the only folks I know of are located in US timezones. So overall I'd rate your likelihood to work remotely from India to be ~0
