Custom Tools, Poor Support
Custom Tools, Poor Support
The money is very good.
Meta uses all of their own custom software tools, so:
A.) everything is broken and super difficult to use. B.) when you do manage to learn a tool, it's totally worthless information outside of Meta.
Contingent workers are isolated and treated very differently from full-timers.
Contingent workers aren't given access to vital hardware for their work.
The research team has no direction whatsoever, and research leads have no idea what they're doing.
Hire some people that have actually worked on real products, instead of a bunch of fresh-out-of-university PhD types that can't manage a team or write any code for themselves.

Simple * Coding Interview: Not too complicated, also not too strict. Didn't do super well and still made it. * Behavioral: A few simple questions, nothing too advanced.
FBU Engineering
The technical questions came with the application. The first two questions were LeetCode easy, and the last two were medium-ish. The first two focused on basic strings, while the last two involved simple arrays and 2D arrays.
