How is the WLB these days for e6? I have an offer for 40% more TC but I hear nothing but horror stories from FB employees. I dont mind working 50-55 hour weeks, higher to ramp up initially. If its more than that then I'd likely quit #meta

Hey FB see folks, Evaluating an E5 offer from FB. But worried about WLB or in general work stress/hours. Based on what I have read on blind most SWE work ~50 hours/week and there is always a stress to get a Meets rating to prevent a PIP. Can folks from FB please share the following data points: 1.
How is WLB at Meta nowadays. Most of the posts on blind about this are older than a year, so asking again. I am planning to move from G to Meta primarily for TC bump. I will hit my cliff next year and even if I get a promo next year, I think I will see a TC dip next year. Can I find temas at Meta w
Dear blind fam, I am in team match for MLE at meta and recruiter said there is opening in genAI org. I chatted with some friends at Meta they just warned me that they have crazy hours even in meta standards. Could people work there shed some light? What I hear is 60 hours in total and often needs

Is WLB really that bad at Facebook? And is it across all departments? How about IT support?
I don't have first-hand knowledge on wlb at Facebook but it seems to be consensus at Blind that it sucks. Fellow Facebookers, how often do you feel pressure from peers/managers to work long hours?
I do believe blind company and wlb ratings are accurate. While Apple and Meta have the same WLB according to blind, Why's only Meta over hyped for bad work life balance? #worklifebalance
Currently at msft and enjoying good wlb. But dissatisfaction is there due to politics and non-merit based promos. Looking to move to london from India, and in middle of a loop with meta. However looking at wob in meta i am getting disappointed. Is it so so bad? Its discouraging my enthusiasm for m
