Job market is brutal for SWEs đĽ˛
I am on PIP since last week. Too stressed out. I am E5 and was previously at Google. I have been at FB 11 months. I can return to G in 1 month (1 year return policy) or try to survive at FB. I want to survive at FB as I fear going back to Google means I am not good enough elsewhere. I got too comfortable at G... I was at Google 6 years (joined as new grad).. any advice on what to do?
If youâre on PIP youâre already decided to be let go. The company needs to just cover their ass so you canât come back and say the firing was unfair. Theyâre documenting now to build your case and let you go. Start interviewing aggressively now. Youâll get a better offer if you still have a job while youâre interviewing and donât tell any of the new companies youâre on PIP
You were good enough for 6 years at Google and you were good enough to pass the FB interview. Maybe your current role/team just isnât a good fit for you.
You worked at Google for six years and possiblely a T5 right? It means you are good. FB and google have different styles it doesnât mean you are BAD. Just go back to G. Good luck!
You probably have a BAD manager than being a BAD swe yourself!
Is it not uncommon to get put on PIP in <= 1 year at FB? Starting to have second thoughts about joining as a new grad
Depends on level. New grad E3 is eazy peazy. E5 is demanding.
Yeah at other companies you can breeze at senior. At fb you are constantly calibrated to others so an e5 has to be performing so each half. That being said itâs easy to be an e3. Wouldnât sweat it
why you can't deliver at facebook
And I thought Amazon was Fâd up
Go back to Google. A lot of people do, since they donât like it at FB, hacky culture etc.
I work with an ex-FB, holy shit, how do they like to hack things up.
Interview at other companies.
Donât suck
