Expecting offers from two large companies: Google and Meta. A few people have said ‘don’t go to Meta’ and ‘stay away from Meta’. They have expanded as to why though. Any feedback on which maybe the better option (aside from comp, etc.) I’m more interested in getting details about company culture and experience as an EA there.

I worked at google as an EA but only 7 weeks as a contractor( i left bc Meta offered me a permanent role) been at meta 3 weeks and in this short time i Honestly yes it’s a lot of work at Meta but also is google they are both huge companies with so many tools and links. It’s just a matter of where you land in department wise and how the structure is Going. At google it was one of the busiest orgs and extremely heavy on calendar management which i didn’t really like i didn’t feel included in the business/ operations aspect. Now at meta I’m in a team where a lot of restructure support and operation work is needed, plus calendaring offsite expenses that does not go away, but i love that I’m a part of supporting implementing processes (operations work) vs google i left like a secretary just scheduling all day. It’s really hard to give you advice bc it all depends on the org, the best way you know what’s right is asking the hiring team what type of support are they looking for? What does 1 day look like for you? What are they struggling in? That way you can see what’s a better fit. Do you like structure and just jumping in to do it? Or do like thrive in caos and feel you can make a bigger impact if you fix things?

Hi all,

I just got a job with Delta airlines and I had an accomodation request to work remotely as I am Immunocompromised. I provided all the neccesary documents to back up my request and letters and documents from my Dr. aswell. My request was denied because the team said they wanted me to have face time and one on one interactions with people from other team (which defeats the purpose of my request) because I have to limit those interactions to reduce the risk of infection. What do I do?
