Process
The interviewer was very dry and provided no guidance. He seemed reluctant to be there.
Aside from that, the questions were LeetCode easy/medium.
I had 45 minutes to complete both, which felt short. I was only able to answer one question.

Interesting Projects, Long Hours
Software Engineering Intern • Former Employee

Pros: Perks are nice, projects are pretty interesting.
Cons: Worked pretty long hours, occasionally working on weekends.
3.0
Good pay, but exhausting work
Software Engineering Intern • Current Employee
New York, New York, United States
April 5, 2022
Pros: Good pay and benefits, remote work, and access to people on many teams.
Cons: The team was not well prepared for onboarding interns remotely, and it made for an isolating work experience.
Individuals seemed to not interrogate the ethics of their work too heavily. I recall asking a team member how they felt about the fact that Facebook had profited off the pandemic due to everyone’s increased online presence, and they simply responded, "That's the way it is."
I had hoped for a more nuanced response and perhaps thoughts about how Facebook could use those funds to improve the ethics of its platform.
