Can you see employee ranks in FAANG? As in can others know if an employee is ICT2 or ICT3 at Apple, or SDE2 or SDE3 at amazon?
There’s a website that does exactly this, it’s called levels.fyi
you misunderstood the question. i am asking if i am a faang employee, in the company directory or email system, can i see the rank of others in my company
Got it. At Apple as an IC, no. However, at Apple at a managerial level or above, yes. It’s through the HR application though, and not through the directory service that Apple uses.
Amazon yes
In Google you can look at anyone's level, unless the person makes it invisible for others to see.
In FB - no. You are a "Software engineer" from L3 to L10, it doesn't matter (this is intentional so that people don't give unnecessary credit to someone just because of their level and it allows more junior ICs to get judged by their work in a meeting and not their level) For managers, it is similar, but you can know that someone is an "Engineering Manager" and when they hit "Director" (L8) and "VP" (L10) - but there is nothing more granular (e.g. Senior or Group Manager, Senior director, SVP, etc)
u just said software engineer until L10, so how can L8 be director or L10 be vp?
Simple - Director and VP are titles given to L8+L9 and L10+ respectively for people managers. L8+ that are ICs (read - don't manage anyone) still have the visible title of "Software Engineer". In theory if an L10 suddenly manages a single person, their title will change to VP
Amazon yes
