10 yoe, fb tc 410k I have worked as backend dev in product teams so not much intersted in infra. or lets say i dont think i have the expertise to contribute at l5 in infra. Curious what other backend devs with similar profile end up working in fb and if they are happy with the transition. i have heard product teams mostly use hack/php which is fine by me but the stories of product teams beong highly stressful and challenging kind of make me rule out that option too leaving me no other option. any insights ? #facebooke5 #facebook
Does fb have a sizable Java stack somewhere?
Android
Eh, Android kinda blows to work on though.
If you know the difference between the stack and the heap, you'll be fine as an infra SWE. C++ is just another language - you'll learn it. Choose infra vs product based on what you want to do long-term. You'll be fine either way.

BREAKING: Internal sources confirm another round of layoffs just hit emails at Tesla. For real.
Backend, java? Forget about infra.
Is it because infra strictly c++?
Yeah I kind of figured that out. How bad are product teams ?
