is it true it’s actually possible to fail the facebook bootcamp? Read a quora post about this so got curious. edit: just a note idk if person actually failed bootcamp or different reason. linking post below https://www.quora.com/I-was-fired-by-Facebook-as-a-software-engineer-in-less-than-2-months-Should-I-write-this-on-my-resume-Can-I-have-another-job as per one of the responses one person said if you dont ship a feature then you’re let go.
Lolol no
I've never heard of it, and I'm a manager who's had a few bootcampers. We're pretty clear it's NOT a probationary period or a process for weeding anybody out and I see no reason to disbelieve that. But I suppose if you just never showed up or refused to work, you would not pass out of bootcamp.
Thanks for the info!
Absolutely. Try not doing any shit and see what happens
I think you can get fired in boot camp if you violate a HR policy like raping a puppy in the microkitchen. Otherwise, I’ve never see anyone fired in boot camp.
Amateur... obviously do it in the bathroom
Absolutely if you never show up.
Why would people be fired for not showing up?
Firing people for not showing up to work is geolocation-shaming, and has no place in an inclusive environment. Facebook needs to drop their prejudices against the geolocationary-challenged individuals
I've heard one bootcamp task per week is a threshold for something, but I'm not sure what
I heard if you aren’t picked up by a team within 5 months, you’re asked to go.
Team doesn't pick you, you pick the team.
It's extremely hard to get fired from performance reason during boot camp. You either never worked or never tried to join a team. BTW I really don't like Quora. The questions have very limited words. So the asker can't give more context. Not sure the fire is because of HR issue or performance issue.
Not true. Anyone can graduate.
