No longer a bottom-up company
No longer a bottom-up company
- Good pay
- Good benefits (insurance, convenience service)
What was once a bottom-up, engineer-driven company is now incredibly top-down and bureaucratic.
It's expected at this scale, but as recently as 3 years ago, I felt like engineers played a huge part in driving team/org direction.
The org leads now can't decide what they want and don't consult engineering for scoping estimates, leading to tons of churn and frustration.
Overall, there's been a huge shift to monetization-focused efforts, but even with that, the leads will panic and pivot frequently, leading to a really difficult culture to actually get anything shipped.

Meta Interview Experiences
Software Engineer
3 rounds new grad: 2 technical and 1 behavioral. Technicals covered general LeetCode medium-level questions. Behavioral interviews focused on general "tell me about a time where you ___" questions. Both interviews were approximately 45 minutes long
Software Engineer
The process took 3 months. Overall, the interviewers were nice and professional. The LeetCode questions were all hard. They asked a lot of behavioral questions. I would say the interviews were quite difficult.

Screening call. The interviewer was supposed to call me but never did. They then booked another time without my approval. Afterward, they asked if I was willing to relocate and rebooked the interview for six months later.
