FB has no promos to half, and working from home till end of year

Before you talk about entitlement and gratefulness, first of all, fuck you! Second of all, Facebook's business was not as impacted as the other business that had to do layoffs. My sincerest condolences to those who got laid off.

Back to me, I'm not motivated to work after I burned out HARD carrying my team through this half. My manager left now and I'm reporting to my step manager, who doesn't have time to do 1:1s or read my messages even.

Should I leave? And where to?

      You do not deserve promotion for asking such a stupid question. Also yes you are entitled, so fuck you too.

    I actually feel for OP because the only reason to go to Facebook and work so hard is to get promoted fast. If you don't get that, what's the point?

      yODA40 hit the nail on the head. The perf and promo at Google was identified back in the days as the #1 reason why so many internal Big Bang projects got started but never got maintained after initial release.

    • It's funny that you mention Linus as an example of someone not toxic. You can be ambitious and still care. If Linus started at Facebook as a new grad Today you think he wouldn't be ambitious for promotions? Pretty sure him being L3 and there being idiots (in his eyes) at L5 would spur him on
