Decent wlb. Most coworkers are nice and collaborative. Good benefits
Difficult to get things done. M10N Senior leadership is very political. Career framework was a disaster.
I heard it is hard to get promoted to L6 at Pinterest where so many people get stuck at L5 for so long. Are the rumors true?

My gut initially told me pins but the benefits that come with fb are pretty good. curious what people have to say for a final internship.

I don't want to post the offer breakdown because they're similar. Both in the 300 range for l4/e4. Pinterest is slightly higher, but with stock performance FB might win. This is for SWE - ML positions. I don't have any faang or big tech on my resume, and I want to optimize for career growth and ...Read more

4 yoe at Google already, seeing a 4 year cliff. Got an offer from Pinterest. Google came up with a counter offer (effective at year end refresh) but still 10%lower as comp team wouldn't completely match pre ipo companies. Both places attract me in some ways. PM role.
