I need advice on choosing between Meta and TikTok for a job: - Both around $350,000 TC. Meta might have higher future refreshers, so really 400k TC for Meta - TikTok's $40,000 stock options per year aren't easily cashed. - Concerned about job security. Meta might have layoffs, similar to Google , Twitch, discord, and others. - TikTok is doing extremely well, sales have doubled so it seems more stable right now. Would joining Meta be too risky? Is Meta risk of layoff real? Any thoughts?
The grass isn’t greener
Its greener only if you are Chinese
I heard from one of my friends, that Meta is hiring and then layoffs the candidate within 3-4 months. Not sure why, doesn’t make sense. Might be because Meta wants to show that they are hiring to make headlines showing they are in good shape now to attract investors money. But silent layoffs don’t make the news. So front door is all decorated and backdoor is full of blood. 🤷♂️ Meta guys, can you please confirm is that true?
It doesn’t make sense because it doesn’t happen… your friend is misinforming you
+1 can someone at Meta comment on this?
Tiktok will make you work overtime
So does Meta
It’s not really true for Meta, working 9-5 is generally sufficient to get MA/EE. May be not for promo
Yoe?
Join meta if laid off then you get package
Seems like severance pkg..how about their Signon bonus, do they have to payback?
No
E4 or E5 at Meta?
The only right answer to this is if you know mandarin. If yes, TikTok is a no brainer.
What if you don’t know mandarin? Not worth trying?
There are jobs here where knowing Mandarin has zero relevance, ya know
I would rather being jobless than working for TikTok
Then you’re an idiot. TikTok is a great company and could propel your career afterwards because they are actually recognizable and growing.
And Amazon
You speak Mandarin?

Meta is still in its year of efficiency, not fun. Some teams are okay. No one feels safe.
Would you join TikTok instead of Meta?
