Meta vs Google L4

Apr 13 21 Comments

Have both offers from Google and Meta.
Im more interested in product teams, so Meta is probably a better fit for me, but Meta's name value and stocks have been down hill.

On the other side, all the team matching calls with google was all systems / infra / DB, all low level code that im not interested in.

Meta TC roughly 300k CAD, google hasnt discussed numbers yet, but they will likely match.

Thoughts?

Tc: 290k

    I don't think Google will match. Google L4 is low and it takes a lot of time for team matching. Meta would be better option. You would have a lot of options to chose team in Meta after you join.

    Do they ask system design for l4? Is grokking good enough for that

      Make sure you do the leetcode discuss fb system design questions, I got an e4 offer from meta, and my system design question wasn't grokking at all. I probably would have been upleveled if I aced it, then again I don't think I'm ready for e5 anyway lol

      thanks for the tip - should clear the phone screen first!
      was feeling pretty confident for the phone screen on Monday until I saw couple of problems today that deflated my confidence lol

  • Just curious, why switching for 10k?
    I mean even brandwise, not a big jump

    • Couple reasons
      I'm not at Msft rn, and my WLB is really bad.
      Bigger reason is although 300K CAD is actually a drop from my current tc, I need to go back to Canada for personal reason.
