Let's say the avg MSFT L64 senior earns $250-300k. I used higher than average numbers because only above average MSFT can survive in Facebook. Works 35hr/wk.
Now assume the avg Facebook E5 earns $350-450k. Works 50hrs/wk.
Adjusting for workload the MSFT guy earns $350k-420k.
So FB hourly rate may be slightly more. Plus have free food.
Is it worth it?

The Microsoft engineer is working amongst Microsoft engineers.
But as far as the company and how they treat you goes, Microsoft wins hands down. Microsoft folks might be earning lower TC but a large majority of them are content because you have a perfect balance between work and life in most teams (as all things should be 😉)
I struggled to get better than average reviews at MS (L64). Never had $250 TC. I left before the SSA wave but I doubt I would have gotten significant amount.
No problem getting EE as E5 here and TC 410k
The inverse isn't necessarily true
I do agree with this statement.
But like people said before, it all depends on what you value!
