Damn how you get 410k as e5 at fb? Did you negotiate

Uber Multileg OP Nov 14, 2019

Yeah with pinterest offer.

I am curious for why you wish to move ? Isn't Uber all that, their recruiter sure keeps talking them up every week on my linkedin.

Uber Multileg OP Nov 14, 2019

Hitting 4 year cliff. Stock is down a lot compare to when I joined. It may be good time to join though (but low)

Amazon lkmbbj Nov 14, 2019

puts into perspective. Would have done if I were you.

Amazon Spartucus Nov 14, 2019

How did you prepare for FB's MLE interview?

Uber Multileg OP Nov 14, 2019

Really the only difference is ML design round, other rounds are the same as other companies.

Amazon Spartucus Nov 15, 2019

Is the ML design round a system design round for ML systems or like how do you solve this problem with ML kinda question?

I just switched to G a year ago and now I’m itching to interview again...

Uber Multileg OP Nov 14, 2019

I would probably go for G with lower TC tbh.. didn’t get that offer :(

Google foony Nov 14, 2019

I'd normally pick Pinterest, but ads? Bleh. Either way, great job for 5 yoe.

Uber Multileg OP Nov 14, 2019

Thanks for the advice. About Ads, is your concern WLB?

Google foony Nov 14, 2019

Nah, I just personally would have no interest in it. To each his own though.

LinkedIn tgrdf Nov 14, 2019

Did you negotiate with Pinterest? They can offer much higher. I got 500k with competing offers.

Uber Multileg OP Nov 15, 2019

That was initial package, they did hint there is room for more.

Oath OPnd70 Nov 14, 2019

How bad did Uber’s stock hit you? Think it can go down some more?

Pinterest NotMitch Nov 15, 2019

Do you personally know anyone at Pinterest ads?

Uber Multileg OP Nov 15, 2019

Not before the interview.

Pinterest NotMitch Nov 15, 2019

Well... There are several other good ML teams at P (also hiring L5), would you consider them as well?

Facebook $hakira Nov 15, 2019

FB stock is undervalued IMO. So I’ll go with FB.

LinkedIn tgrdf Nov 17, 2019

Why would you say fb is undervalued?
