I am thinking of joining Meta as a contingent contract worker in the CWX program as a software engineer. Can anyone provide me with some information about the quality of this program?

Will I be on Meta's payroll or will I be paid by some random 3rd party?

The main reason I am considering this is that I want to be able to put a FAANG company on my resume, which I won't be able to do if they are hiring me through a 3rd party. Also, how are the conversion prospects?

Take the contractor role
You’ll have a great time if you take it for what it is
I’ve take a couple, onsite at MPK classic was amazing
Make sure to take the time to make the best of the opportunity and meet as many FTEs as you can
Join the onsite clubs, spend some time to poke around FTE opportunities, that’s your in!

You will get paid by your agency(cwam) not Meta, you can still put that you worked at Meta, but make sure it says it was a contract role on the resume, not full time.

You are a contractor and they will make sure you fully understand you do not work for them. Regardless if you are working in site or not. They will provide with most equipment needed.

This is gig work through Meta, and a question you need to ask them

Be careful if you're involved in content moderation of users postings..Meta uses contractors for that and in legal discovery you and your employer can be sued for free speech censorship. Section 230 only applies to Meta not their contractors Meta likes to engage contractors to assume liability...

I agree with Product Manager 1 above. If you are getting the contrat through Meta then they would be the ones you would want to ask these questions to.

I keep applying and getting rejected but they post the role. Does anyone know if any other companies have a simple program?
