Not for the weak
Not for the weak
The pay and other contractors are good to work with. WFH during the pandemic helped people stay employed. The role is dynamic and exciting if you like working on new technology.
Upper management created a toxic, cutthroat work environment. You have to have tough skin to deal with constant criticism. This is very much a "yes sir" type role.
Better communication to employees so they know where to improve. Expectations are not defined, and contractors are left to improvise on many occasions.

Meta Interview Questions
Meta Interview Experiences
Senior Software Engineer
Tree question. Couldn't give tips at all. Interviewer was disconnected and condescending for each reject in 45 minutes. Really terrible candidate experience. There have been few good experiences with Meta.
Data Engineer
First is the recruiter round, then a one-hour technical interview which included questions around SQL and Python. After that would be behavioural and other technical rounds. Other technical rounds would cover system design, etc.
Software Engineer
Pretty standard. Just grind LeetCode. They basically want you to make zero mistakes and solve problems like a robot. They don’t really care about your thought process, just that you find the most optimized solution ASAP.
