Got an offer for IC4 at FB MPK 4 yoe 160/10%/200over4/15signon There's a lot of data for SDE E4 but not so much for data eng IC4. Is there any room for negotiation? I have a verbal offer from Uber but no numbers yet. I'm leaning towards taking the FB offer since I liked the people I met there so much better. Any thoughts?
DE is boring at Facebook
Take Uber offer, because Uber don’t differentiate in RSU between DE and SWE .... but FB does big time .... and FB will be there ... you can always join them .... but if you join Uber before IPO maybe those paper money can have some value
Also FB DE is very much only writing SQL .... if you don’t enjoy writing code then probably FB will be better ... but if you want learn something new and start coding then join UBER ... as well let Uber know you have Offer from FB they will give good signon bonus
You can also search on blind for UBER L4 salary and you’ll get an idea how much they
I was thinking about doing th same thing as you bud. What type of data stuff have you worked on?
There is no better place to be a Data Engineer than at Facebook. It's a broad role, which includes etl work, coding and tons of soft skills. It's also possible to shape your role to the things you are really interested in.
It really isn’t. Considering FB gives DE less stocks then SWE,by that very fact means it’s valued less.
@grandaddog I agree. That's the general vibe I got from meeting people from the team. But TC is on the lower side. Do you know if I can ask more base? Or is there only room in the band for RSUs?
DE are valued way less than SWE for sure at FB, work is good but pay is way less - I’m not saying FB is not good or anything, but just saying he should join UBER where there is no distinction between DE and SWE and they all are paid equally 🙂 also work at Uber is great - they also have lot of data to work on
Can one transition from DE to SDE at FB?
Yes but then you have to go through interview process, which includes 2 coding and 1 system design
