Amazon vs meta

[copper pagoda]

I got meta sde ng and amazon ng offers, which one is better

[merry fern]

both are toxic now but meta is higher pay

[mossy elbow]

the TC is rlly the same tbh

[mossy elbow]

whatever location you prefer

id honestly say live in the cheaper city

[copper pagoda]

Bay area both

For both you are going to work damn hard, Amazon is great in your early career as I find there may be more mentorship but Meta still has a better name at this point

[craggy marlin]

Entirely depends on the team ngl

[opaque canyon]

Yeah, ideally one that makes money and aligns with company’s vision => less chance of a layoff at this point

[craggy marlin]

Im moreso thinking about the work being interesting

Like if it was amazon embedded id take that over general swe at meta or smth

Zon cuz Zuckeberg is going crazy with naga shit rn

[copper pagoda]

I wish but both are generic hire for sde

[modern tree]

Accept both offers and see what teams u on. Then choose the one with a team u are more interested in

U can't really go wrong with either both are top companies

[onyx oak]

Meta clears I think

Faster growth and promo, better exit opportunities, and higher bar

Amazon hires too many ppl, and promo is slower (and also just less quality of life benefits)

But it does also depend a lot on team

[copper pagoda]

Thx bro I just afraid if I decline one after accepting it. I will be frozen by that company

[modern tree]

From amazon u wont

People have accepted and said no to the offer like a week before and still got offers again

Amazon and meta are both shit holes though get the experience and money and go to a better company

[copper pagoda]

Also my google vo is at next week. If I get google I’ll definitely go there

Just try to defer for some time

[modern tree]

Good luck

[copper pagoda]

Thx

[modern tree]

I'm going to google hopefully I see u there
