Just curious what the internal transfer process is like between organizations at Facebook, Apple, Netflix, Google, Microsoft, Twitter, Uber, Lyft, Stripe, etc, etc. How common and seamless is this for employees at these companies? How frequently do folks transfer on average? Specifically directed towards Software Engineers and Managers #culture #career
Not easy at Apple but do-able.
It will trigger keeper test in Netflix, but not difficult if your manager think you are a keeper.
Could you elaborate please?
Simply put, if the manager can’t recommend you or the transfer fails you might end up without any job.
Pretty easy at Google. No interviews needed. You set up a coffee chat with a manager and figure out if you’re the correct fit for each other. Sometimes you could also do a 20% on the new team to get more clarity on if you like the work and team. In our team specific all hands (at least in my team), you’re encouraged to find interesting roles within Google. Having a hiring committee gives Google managers confidence in a consistent hiring bar - so employees are not re-evaluated on problem solving. Plus Google believes that engineers are productive when mentally stimulated so the company offers you an environment that supports you.
This sounds fantastic. Especially, the 20% on new team aspect. Thanks for sharing!
Pretty trivial at Square. As long as you and your new manager agree on having you move, your old manager isn't particularly involved unless you are on a PIP or an absolutely crucial project in which case they might ask you to stick around to finish it.
What’s the internal transfer policy at Amazon ? How easy is it ? I’ll be joining as a L6 individual contributor in a client facing role
