I’m joining Facebook as an E6 Production Engineer. I really want to do a good job so I was curious what the expectations are for that level? Is it true there is an up-or-out policy and that I have a certain amount of time to get promoted or else I’d be fired? Are there career ladders posted anywhere? My first day is in October.
@op Facebook allowed u 3 months to join ?
Wowo good lord. YoE? Have you been doing SRE stuff? Congrats!
Up or out isn’t a thing after E5. You’ll be fine, have conversations with your future manager to set expectations. Welcome to FB.
TC ? Is it similar to SWE TC ? How much total/SRE experience do you have ?
Up or out is usually for below E5, that mentality at E6+ would be kind of ridiculous...
That’s what I thought too. Just wanted to make sure. Thanks!
