I recently received an offer from Microsoft, Redmond and I’m also in the team matching stage with Meta with calls scheduled. Would Microsoft be a better option in this climate given what I’ve read about Meta’s culture and the layoffs as well? Would appreciate any advice, the important factors for me are job growth and security. I’m not international so immigration is not a concern. #microsoft #meta
Talk to HM on both teams and see what kind of impact you can make, how essential the team is to the company, and also the team make up. All take questions will answer your career aspirations , which you may like note, and which is more safer.
Go for Meta, Microsoft is horrible . I have recently moved to Microsoft , such a horrible company . If you don’t wanna grow and enjoy your time , then Microsoft must be your go to
At meta you’d grow much faster and make much more money, but the burnout is inevitable for most of us after like 5 years since it’s so intense. At Microsoft, you can chill and stay there for your whole career if you really wanted to
MSFT is safer but lesser tc and slower growth. I know friends stuck at 59/60 even after 2-3 years. Meta you'd have a clear runway to E4 in 18 months
