How different are they? Worked at Amazon before G but curious on what to expect if I end up taking a position at FB
Why is Facebook so bad? Bad infrastructure? Bad code? Changing requirements? Or they just want to squeeze people?
All of the above. At Amazon people can at least disconnect from work, at FB work never ends and PSC is back again before you know it.
At Amazon there are teams with good WLB and teams with bad WLB. At Facebook there are teams with bad WLB and teams with horrific WLB.
Dude are you seriously asking about fb wlb again? There's at least a couple per day on Blind.
Trying to compare against a known (Amazon) which is different from people just giving their opinion with a random baseline.
I’ve worked at both. I found Amazon to have better WLB surprisingly. FBs emphasis on perf reviews 2x per year and everyone being connected via workplace and work chat all the time make it worse IMO. Very team dependent I imagine though I came from a team at Amazon with fairly healthy WLB.
