I’m joining Meta (Instagram team) located in NYC this month for a hybrid model (based on offer). What is the current working from home vs from office policy for current employees? How many times are you going and see others working from NYC office? Any shuttle service available for commute? If driving, is parking available near the office? TC: 470k #meta #returntooffice #nyc #commute #instagram
YoE?
Not relevant to the question. But sure 4.5yrs
Shuttle? Driving? Have you ever seen NYC?
Not really. Ever since I moved here I’ve been working from home. How do people get to work here - if the subway connectivity isn’t great from where you live?
Gotcha. Subway connectivity is probably the best here in the country. Meta will provide commuter benefits card. That's all you need.
I just joined. I don't think parking is available. You get $127/month for MetroCard + $50 additional for commute (I guess for busses, other trains, etc).
Unrelated to original questions but did you all use your real Facebook account to authenticate with work account? That requirement seems odd to me to link work Facebook and personal account?
They make you dogfood their apps so that employees report bugs. Maybe there are other reasons but this is the most apparent one to me.
No shuttle. Avoid driving at all cost. Are u going to live in the Burroughs or Jersey city. Either way, you don’t need shuttle or drive.
What are some good teams to join as mle on Instagram side?
If you don't mind me asking, did you decide to join the Instagram team after bootcamp? Or did you specifically apply to an opening on that team?
Offer breakup ? Also was boot camp fully remote ? I am joining soon but Menlo Park
Bootcamp: yes, fully remote.
What’s bootcamp ?
