Is the WLB and PSC culture at Meta as bad as Blind makes it to be?

When I read Glassdoor reviews of Meta/Facebook, I see mostly positive reviews, including Meta being in the top 10 places to work for many years straight. The company reviews occasionally mention WLB but its rarely a headline.
On Blind I keep reading how terrible WLB is at Meta and how the PSC culture can drive people to work insane hours and cut corners.
I know the irony of asking this question on Blind, but could anyone shed a little light into how the WLB really is and how the PSC culture influences the WLB? #facebook #meta #wlb #psc

Assuming all your peers are performing at the same level, whoever spends more hours will end up doing more work/ impact. And whoever ends up doing more will end up ahead when stack ranked.
In meta the top performers gets paid a lot. ( refreshers of 200k more) So there is fierce competition to get there. In companies like microsoft this translates to a very small about (say 20k) so people are happy to be average.
