Took a paycut going into Meta - $305k TC to $270k. Also had an AP offer for $370k. Decided to go with Meta as I wanted to scratch the industry/FAANG itch. Ive really struggled because the role hasn’t panned out as expected, and the only benefit has been WLB. Should i go back out into market? Only been 6 months at the new role

End of the day, if you are not happy when you go to bed or you don’t get excited to work, you maybe in the wrong place.
Get out, market is hot! Find something you are passionate about..
don’t go with the brands

Oh absolutely, when I say "limited" I just mean there is a limit on how much value the brand provides. You need to be able to back it up. But brands definitely open doors.

Take the year - but I’d start to soft search now at other Big tech and if that doesn’t pan out go back to consulting.

Damn. Takes a lot to turn down an AP offer. What part of the role didn’t pan out like you expected?

Well your TC will be a lot less before bonus and RSU vesting if you leave now and only getting base. Would taking that hit be ok with you?

What role at Meta? (Asking because I'm in the process for a role and worry about landing in the same place)

Meta does not pay well for business roles.

Hi, how much do you think the role at Meta as an Enterprise Engineer Program Manager (remote or Austin) would average?

Which App and which business unit? I generally find they throw money away…the company was dense before layoffs which is why I think a lot of times aren’t extremely valuable…each person isn’t contributing a lot
