I am an Engineering Manager at Tableau and am tired of the CRM bullshit (CRM i.e Salesforce acquired Tableau about a year ago). My WLB sucks right now and all the lip-service to “mental health” and not really giving a damn about it in reality has been quite frustrating. Adding to that, Tableau Managers were poorly level mapped to CRM engineering manager ladder (level-mapped to a Senior Manager with no salary bump puts me way below my Salesforce counterparts with comparable experience). I am done and am looking for other opportunities. Please share your Engineering Manager interview experiences and any tips you may have for interview prep. Detailed tips and timeline for preparation would really help. Please share interview questions if you had recently gone through one. I am looking for good pay, interesting work, and a great WLB (in that order). I have 3+ years of people management experience and 16+ years of industry experience. Current TC - $320 (base + stock + bonus) #tech #manager #help #interviewquestions #interview #faang #google #fb #netflix #desperate
I am also interested in the tips and timeline for preparation, thanks!
Get out of here. I can feel you

Tips for becoming manager plz
Talk to your manager and your skip-level about your career aspirations of becoming a manager. Pick up leading opportunities like - Being a tech lead for a virtual sub-team; leading scrum activities by becoming a scrum master for example; be genuinely interested in your people’s growth
Chill out. You’re making $320k while everyone is getting laid off. Also checkout amazon.
How many folks are you managing? In my experience Google and Facebook expect at least 4 years of people management to consider you
8 ICs. Also, I think 3 years of people management experience is what is expected by GOOG and FB.
Not what I was told but cool. I just went through Facebook and Google for EM positions and will be joining Google in a couple of weeks. I can’t share questions for obvious reasons, but I can tell you how my processes went: Google: After talking to a recruiter and going through my resume, and what I’m looking for the next step was team match. Once you get a hiring manager interested in hiring you, they move you to on-sites. On-sites are well documented on the internet, one coding, two management, and two systems design. Facebook: Call with a recruiter, then video interview of 40 min with an eng manager, half management half talking about a technical project that I’ve led, improvements, etc. the on-site is two management, one coding, one systems design, and one product design (my profile is full stack).
People I know at Tableau are chilling and WLB doesn’t seem like a concern. What happened to you?
While that IS the case with Tableau in general, it sadly isn’t in my org.
Word up Tableau buddy, this is a shitshow.
