Joined FB from Amazon. I see that everyone in my team works on weekends and nights. There is no releases coming up so I don't understand why people are still working at nights and weekends. Is it a norm at Facebook? Will I get fired if I don't work on nights and weekends? Any thoughts? These engineers say it's fun. But I think it's not a fun place to work and some hard times are about to come for me. All people getting ready to come to FB, please be aware and make an informed decision. I think, I was warned on blind, but didn't listen and joined for TC š. You don't have a personal life at FB
Menlo park in infra team
Wow that's insane. Change to a different team with a better WLB?
So 996 is becoming 997. No life is the new normal.
I thought Amazon was brutal. But FB is at a very different level. In Amazon at least I worked hard only when there was some milestone deliverables at the horizon. But in FB god š
I bet its the Asian guys . You should watch American Factory on Netflix, if you have time for that, and you will not be surprised anymore.
True. Fb is full of Asians and non-Asians who can beat Asians in their own game. So it's a race to the end
And in both meanings of the word "race"...sorry for the joke
You were warned, live with TC now:)
Yep. Can't agree more š
Asians + Indians = 24/7 grind
Spot on
Indians are asian
What does your manager think about it?
Manager just say, FB is engineer driven company, people are very motivated and all those things. U know what it means. He don't care. If u are an engineer at FB is it same in your team? I am looking for advice. I need to decide whether to stay or quit. 997 is impossible for me
What do you mean 997?
