I have been working in financial sector but as technologist for 7 years, now I have this opportunity to make a switch to Facebook. Just want to see if anyone did this and how was their switch to fb. Was it a good decision; was it hard to adjust?
I briefly worked in finance and the pace switch is obvious, but I also got an interesting half-reprimand from my boss that I didn’t need to worry about stepping on toes or getting permission to fix problems before actually fixing them. They’re serious, I’ve seen PMs be glad when someone not on their team unexpectedly fixed a problem in their area & that kind of thing would have gotten me in huge political 💩 at the bank.
Should be easier coming in to fb from finance than the other way around.
