And how are the benefits like is there free food, snacks etc? Any insights or advice would be greatly appreciat...Read more

Laid off Meta E4 YOE 4 Previous TC 310K My background aligns more with Yahoo finance and I was told by the hiring manager that I might have a chance to lead a critical project.

It was the premier job website of the internet. You upload your resume and get callbacks from recruiters. After the dot com crash, when jobs disappeared, it became full of spam.
