This week I decided to accept google offer. Rejected FB. Both TC was same . Google matched Facebook’s offer . TC - 470 with signon. Now I think I made a mistake as becoming L6 is going to be much harder at google . #engineering #software #swe Yoe: 9
Wlb issues in fb are real
The option you did not choose is always better.
Prep strategy please?
Leetcode subscription 😜
Google matched 470 TC? That's a godlike L5 offer lol. Right decision imo.
470 including sign on
Sign on should not be included in TC. What is it without?
What makes you think E6 is easier at FB? It may be faster but definitely not easier as Blind makes it seem to be. Most of them never get there. Worked at FB for over 5 years in the past.
I’ve worked at both. It is both easier and faster at FB. Still, most people don’t make it. Imo Google puts some artificial barriers on promo making many people underleveled relative to other companies
When did you work there? If it was before 2018, yeah it was easier because the company was much smaller.
I am not sure about an L6 in Google, but an E6 in Facebook has a lot of pressure.
The jobs might honestly be the same at both places. But L6 is for sure harder because Google’s promo’s are just more political and complicated. For Facebook E6 is still a relatively straight forward process.
How much is the TC without sign on?
Go work at Google, you can come back to FB as E6 in couple of years.. Enjoy your success!
Says the micro guy, I have heard it is easier to survive as e6 in fb getting promoted from e5
