Tired of the poor WLB and constant stress at FB. Which company has better work life balance than FB and pays similar (or a little less) ? 3.5 years experience at FB (joined as new grad). Currently E5. TC 320k
Only one I know of, Google. Including paper money, maybe one or two others.
Which others? Interview is kinda luck, no guarantee that I will crack Google. Better to have more options.
Good WLB in Goog is way exaggerated. Cloud does not enjoy good wlb.
LinkedIn. But for 4 years only.
You mean there cliff creeps in after 4 years ? Same at FB as well
LI refreshers are very poor I’ve heard
I assume you're in the bay. If youd consider seattle, ms will match or beat your tc adjusted for taxes/col. E5 is equivalent to l5 at google, right? You could get an l63 offer with that for 160/220/50 or so. That's 277k tc (equivalent to 360tc in bay), over the 4 years (not incl raises or promo assuming target comp).
Yes, I am in the Bay Area. That sounds awesome.
Well, if you're interested DM for referral.
Lyft is comparable-ish with FB. Probably 10% under but way better WLB.
How is WLB at Lyft. TC is slightly lower than FB (even though Lyft is paper money) based on my experience but I would surely like to know more about WLB (as I am prioritizing that).
Groupon
The right team at FB has fine wlb
Question is what are the right teams ?
I found one straight out of bootcamp, you've been here for years surely you can navigate and transfer to one
Airbnb can go to 450-500k tc for L5. Great wlb. Lots of fb folks here already. Big stock refreshers too. Definitely try interviewing here.
Is the hiring bar more/less than G/FB?
More Airbnb > Google > Facebook.
in 3.5 yrs new grad to E5? that is very impressive!! btw with such growth rate it is hard to have better WLB.
@op, how many hours do you work per week now?
I now work 40 hours, but not sure if I will get Meets All 🤣
Moved to fb for the better wlb
From where? You like the wlb here or it’s just me?
Goog
