Hello All, considering a contract offer at Meta but curious about the contractor experience. Is it possible to land a FTE permanent role or get mobility opportunities as a contractor? What's the work life balance in HR?

I’ve had a good experience working in Marketing at Meta as a contractor. Work life balance is really nice. My team is great but something I don’t like is getting excluded from comms/events that are only meant to FTEs. I understand it considering being such a big company and wanting to manage confidentiality. I’ve seen other contractors getting converted so it is possible to land a FTE role based on headcount and performance. I don’t think internal mobility as a contractor is common unless signing a new contract with a different team. It will open doors in the tech industry if that’s something you are looking for.

I’m interviewing for a marketing manager role at a company based in SF. I’m genuinely excited about the role and the company but we’ve yet to discuss salary. I expect to be asked at some point, but my research has given me a VERY broad range. So I’m here to do a bit more research. I’ve got 5 very relevant years of experience and will have an associate manager directly reporting to me. Are there any marketers out there who can share their salaries in similar regions and experience levels?
