Complete lack of empathy, uninteresting and redundant projects, inexperienced and lazy leaders and cutthroat performance management culture makes this place depressing. I used to be very driven and motivated before Meta. Here, getting myself to sit in front of the laptop feels like torture. Those who left Meta, has your spirits improved after leaving or do you miss Meta? YOE: 15 TC: ~600k
Stfu with a TC of 600k Lots of us are in depressing jobs making 250k (like me) Weāre all trading our souls for a pay check. Itās not just meta employees, at least youāre making bank.
Look at mr. moneybags over here with $250k TC
CA CHING!! $$$$
Too much bullshit in this post. What you described is true for almost any company and yet most earn less than a third of what you make.
no
itās because yāall are focused on huge companies instead of looking for the right fit.
Feeling the exact same. Tough to leave the TC in this climate tho.
You do not leave that kind of tc in any environment.
Seriously what more do these people want? Just go out and talk to your average joe about their TC, youāll thank your lucky stars you got in even at 250 K
Nopeā¦ I left and went to Microsoft. Significant difference in work style and WLB. But different does not mean better. I miss the fast moving work environment with great engineers. It is a lot slower at MSFT and trust me, the engineers I work with are not anywhere close to Meta. On the flip side, my superiors are more empathizing and my WLB has improved. Meta E5 to MSFT L65
How has tc changed?
TC change was minimal because I left when Meta stock was at all time low. But I really donāt care about TC because either way, Iāll still be in the top 5% of the general workforce. Overall, Meta has better TC with perks and bonuses.
Mental health >>>> TC
wrong
As a Xoogler with lower TC compared to (current) Meta, Mental Health >> TC
Voluntarily left Meta after 5 years, couldn't be happier. I wake up at ease without having dreams about red deltoids
red deltoids :)
Curious now. What is this?
Meta wasnāt awful, but I am happy I left. But boy do I miss using Workplace as a kind of communication hub, especially for a remote-first worklife.
Do you use Slack or another app, or do Pinterest employees only communicate pictorially?
I find it to be a lot of noise. Need to check email, chat AND workplace. Too disconnected. Too much information. I always feel that I am behind on catching up.
I wish I am depressed with $600k š
Grass is always greener
Youād wish you had not wished for it !
Donāt listen to these ppl, 600k tc is standard- just go somewhere else
TC or...?
