Great pay for code monkeys
Rotational Engineer • Former Employee
New York, New York, United States
July 12, 2021
Pros: - Competitive salary
- Amazing benefits
- Doctor & specialist visits are $10
- 25 free therapy visits
- 401K match is effectively about 25%
- Generous reimbursements (just pay taxes)
- Open source contributions are praised, not intellectual property
- Very fast growth potential
Cons: Moving fast is more important than code quality (lots of copy-pasted code).
Prioritized projects mostly have to align with company goals. This sounds like a good thing, but it's mostly about "How do we get X users to use feature Y more often?" and "How do we increase time users spend on FB?" These are soul-sucking priorities and involve working on trivial experiments, which are not even remotely interesting.
I personally hate Mercurial.
