Anyone have experience working CWX side of Facebook (Meta) ? These are the full time contract roles that potentially turn into permanent roles directly with Facebook (Meta). Had a recruiter reach out and offering me comparable TC and such, just curious if anyone has experience in these roles and success/failure of transitioning into permanent role. Thanks in advance!

Hi guys, good day,
As a software engineer 2, my current pay is 17.5L base + 5% variable. I have stocks worth 6500$ and other benefits.
YOE: 3+ years
I wanted to try companies which pays 30L base minimum. How much does Amazon offers for SDE2 and SDE3 role?
Is there any other companies I can try considering my expectations?
Language Skills: C/C++, Java, Python
Thanks in advance

That’s a pretty loaded question. It depends on how you define best. Highest compensation? Coolest projects? Biggest impact to society? Easiest to do/learn? Hardest to do/learn? Most intellectually satisfying?
Depending on your point of view and preferences many flavors of engineering could be considered “best”
Such a bold statement! I don't know if there's a way to objectively rank the different branches of engineering, what is important for someone isn't important for another person.
I would say civil engineers. They literally build our cities, so without them, there wouldn't be any highways, bridges, buildings, etc.
This is quite the ostentatious and pretentious post.
It comes down to preference for most people, and many people loathe electrical engineering. Also, by all accounts I’ve heard, going back to college advisors and fellow engineering students, including EE majors, chemical engineering is the most difficult and longest major. It was almost 200 major credits at one university I attended; to be clear, that’s 200 credits for classes only for the major, generals not included. 😳
Yikes. As a mere mechanical engineer, I'm probably not qualified to answer this question.
It would seem that only someone financially and power motivated would ask this question. Engineers solve problems and/or strive to deliver better solutions. My father is Chem Eng by undergrad, and I am a Mech Eng by ungrad. We both needed 150 credit hours to graduate; different schools. We both have Masters in Engineering in different specialties from the same school. These MS degrees only made us more competitive against a colleague - not richer. We have a passion, do you?
No engineering is inherently better than the others; it all depends on which career path appeals to you! All branches of engineering offer unique challenges and opportunities for learning. If you're interested in technology, electrical engineering could be a good fit. Alternatively, if you want to play an important role in creating new products that improve people's lives, mechanical engineering might be the right choice for you.
To me it is software engineering which provides a great opportunity to develop software applications or design computer networks.
What I like to tell people is that ultimately, it's important to research each field carefully before deciding which one is right for you - think about what interests or excites you the most and pick the engineering discipline that matches those passions!
Well, yeah, I don’t blame the guy since structures classes are the worst. No offense to any structural engineers reading this—I love the skyscraper documentaries, but wow did I hate my structures classes. Though, I’m in traffic engineering (another sub-discipline of civil), and other people find it dreadful. It’s all about preference.
“most difficult to study” is subjective. I’ll say civil is best because all others are just subdivisions of civil
