Recently received one fb offer. Per recruiter the feedback signal is very strong positive. But it is still e5 instead of e6(Yoe 7-8). Asked around was told that fb never offer e6 for external hire. Is that true?
Tc or gtfo
Can you elaborate on what the expectations and responsibilities were?
7 YOE is typically 5. 6 is possible, but as WeWork mentioned, expectations are very high.
Is $550k possible for FB L5?
It is even hard for E6.
I'm making $450k as L5 at G. Guess I need to look somewhere else for a 20% jump.
7 or 8 years of experience? Bahaha
Why do you laugh?.....
Hitting the ground running as E6 is very hard so you really take a risk. Also at 7-8 yoe I would say generally E5 is correct
Why is E6 hard to hit the ground running?
Why is that?
Not true. You can find 3-5 yoe e6 internally.
How fast have you seen people get to E5 from E3 as a new grad at FB?
That’s surprising, how do they keep up with more experienced peers?
They definitely do, got e6 offer 2018 March. Accepted and still at FB. When interviewing, they even considered me for e7 but they settled for e6. But I had 20+ yoe and ios swe track. 6 years ios experience
Not true. I was offered E6. Think twice if you want E6, tho. The responsibilities and expectations can be brutal.
You know this firsthand or from friends?
Firsthand. Worked as E6 for 2 years. No previous faang experience.
