Have a job offer from Meta. In light of recent news of folks getting their meta offer rescinded, what do you all think about keeping my old job and working two full time jobs for a bit, until I’m settled into Meta?

Ask for a sabbatical from your current job. Use that time to explore Meta, then make the decision that’s best for you.

There’s no law against it mainly because it is dependent on the employment contract.

Is it ethical? Probably not… but so is rescinding offers after someone resigns from their old job. So I’d say: you reap what you sow.

Can they sue if they find out? Probably… but I have a family to feed with my paycheck and I can’t deal with the fact you have a reputation for rescinding offers.

So I’m excited about the opportunity, but I need some reassurance this is not going to harm me.
