Meta

I was an intern at Meta when it was still Facebook. I was on a platform team that made products for other teams to utilize. The team itself was pretty standard, mostly SWE with a few cross-functional collaborating PMs and higher-level tech leads. My mentor was wonderful and really tried to help me learn and grow. My peers were also great and gave good general career advice whenever we had 1:1s. The internship was during COVID, so it was a lot less exciting than it would've been in person, but a super smooth experience regardless. I wasn't working overtime or anything crazy during the internship. There was pressure to finish my intern project, but I felt that I had ample time and support to get it done without working overtime. I got a full-time return offer at the end of the internship.

Since the internship was remote, I didn't get to meet other interns or network the way you usually can. This made the internship less fun than it usually would be, but not really the fault of the company in that sense.
