Stay at FB or Jump?
Recently interviewed around quite a bit and deciding between a few places: Google L5 TC: ? In teammatch DoorDash L5: TC: ~400k? Citadel LLC: TC: mid 400k Snap L4: TC: ~400k (weird 3 year vest though) Stay at FB E5, can hit E6 in next 1.5 years possibly: Total unvested is currently 460k, mostly front loaded in next two years This year TC: ~450k Next year TC: ~400k + part of refresher Year 3 TC: 360k + part of next two refreshers YOE: 3 #google #doordash #citadel #snap #snapchat #facebook
Honestly leaning closest to doordash, but their stock has a ton of growth prices in. Are things good at DD?
Can people answer why too lol?
Why not just move after getting to E6?
I could, but trying to feel out other companies first too
I recently got an E4 offer from FB and have some questions. Can I DM you?
Sure
Not enough details Are you eng? Have are you including expected refreshers in your projections?
Eng, but yes, refreshers at FB will be higher (RE + GE last two halves)
I moved to finance from FANG and have been pretty happy. DM if you have questions.
Thanks! I think main thing I’ve heard is about WLB at Citadel being kinda meh
I'd say WLB is going to be very team dependent in general. It's important to talk to multiple people on the team to get a sense of culture and hours.
How was the interview at DD?
Pretty standard format, sys design, behavioral, 2 coding. One coding was an LC hard though which was rather annoying but overall fine
How many coding questions per round ? Is it 2 mediums or 1 easy 1 medium or 1 hard ?
imo if you can get to E6 at FB, I'd stay. it sounds like you have a niche in your org/are good at delivering according to your org's values, which I think is invaluable. idk why the 2nd most popular answer in the poll is currently Google; Google's comp will not be as good, and career growth is *much* slower than at FB. I would say pocket the career growth that you p much already have in the bag (getting to E6), then consider jumping, bc those offers will take E6 into account
This is my thinking exactly. Grass is not always greener and those comp numbers are pretty much the same or even lower than your current comp. plus I think your trajectory will be much lower at all those places.
Are you phd?
You’ll be E6 with 4.5 yoe ?
Realistically yes, I do well in my orgs domain
Any tips ? I am joining FB as E5 soon
