#

Also want to try make it to NYC sometime in next 2-3 years

hybrid wagon
#

Do u know which team for meta

#

Could be diff than the team u interned at

onyx folio
#

I’d go roblox prob

#

Assuming the meta ro is for the same boring org

hybrid wagon
inner dove
#

Nah

hybrid wagon
#

Yeah go meta unless team sucks

inner dove
#

Yeah that’s what I wanted to do

hybrid wagon
#

Take Roblox n meta then renege one

inner dove
#

Problem is we don’t know team until start date

#

Probably after tbh

onyx folio
#

for blox or meta

#

take both and pick later start date for roblox

#

renege roblox if meta team is good, quit meta if team is bad

#

#

#

Spartacus I thought u already were FT at meta

inner dove
#

Nah I’m just a ngmi new grad

#

idk I feel like it’s tough tho

#

Ifl meta is better for ai lab recruiting

inner dove
#

I think team matters the most for ai labs

#

But yeah Meta has the better brand name

#

Which is why decision is so hard

onyx folio
#

Roblox the only one u don’t have cons for

buoyant steppe
#

for meta lwk you’ll prob be on the same team

inner dove
#

My team was all react man

#

And a bit of php

#

Hated that shit

buoyant steppe
#

but it’s also like 90% of SWE is crud idk why ppl hate it so much lol

inner dove
#

Nah there were hella cool infra and networking teams

#

Even some of the ads performance teams were cool

#

This one feels kinda close for all 3 ngl

buoyant steppe
inner dove
#

Honestly I like the work the most though tbh

#

It seems the most abstract and open ended + maga

sour grail
#

are these all NG offers @inner dove

#

take roblox if you can get a good team

#

you already have meta on resume

#

if you get CPP / infra stuff at roblox it would definitely be a good signal for quants, but realistcally any of these can make it to quant

#

if u want top ai lab then meta might be better but ur team is crudbob not ai related so meh

#

overall roblox bc can pick team, already have meta on res, highest tc

#

go anduril if u really value blowing kids up and dont mind less tc

#

also how did u land roblox ng? i thought they hire very limited ng and most of the class is intern -> ro ft ? is it just prev meta on ur res?

either way congrats!

inner dove

#

anything but anduril

livid summit
#

insanely team dependent

#

ur goal is not a real meta gives you most optionality for either

#

roblox does too actually

#

sign and reneg based on team

inner dove
#

Won’t know meta team until after bootcamp unfortunately

#

#

#

Which roblox teams are u considering

inner dove
#

economy, infrastructure, or ai foundations

#

anything but safety 💀

cyan jewel
#

safety there’s some ml work lol

tender forum
#

i would personally pick anduril

#

but it seems i am the minority

#

i think the work at anduril would be far more enjoyable and meaningful than roblox and meta

#

with ur current offers i wonder if you could get them to transfer you to costa mesa

Yea the only layoffs they have ever had was laying off 30 ppl in their talent acq department in 2023

#

And from a gaming studio in 2024

#

wait what do you mean

storm scroll
#

i vote meta

#

i think meta will prob be the highest paying company as your career progresses

#

and external meta is much harder than internal, homegrown meta

sour grail
#

they said they can pick their blox team

buoyant steppe
#

And meta it isn’t too hard to switch teams after a year

sour grail
#

I think a lot of people say that, but it’s harder than it is in reality

#

plus your promo timeline might get ruined a little if you switch managers

#

ik a guy who got reorged / switched to a diff team and it took 2 yrs for E4 for him instead of 1

buoyant steppe
sour grail
#

not to mention Roblox tc is also the same as internal promo at meta e4 for the first 1-2 yrs

#

but long term tc will be higher at any of the goals so doesn’t really matter

#

But yeah

#

I think take meta or blox

#

Personally would go blox since already have meta on res

#

And cpp stuff prob better signal for quant than crudbob

buoyant steppe
#

also for ai labs / fintech, Roblox cpp/infra isn’t providing an advantage over meta, even if its crud

sour grail
#

Fair but meta isn’t providing one that significantly higher than blox either

#

bc it’s not ai work

#

so just go wherever

#

marginal difference for ai and fintech, blox prob slightly better for quant

buoyant steppe
#

sure I think it’s close

#

def not anduril tho

sour grail
#

Yeah lmfao

#

If you like your team talk to your skip and see if you can be assigned to their team as a ng

quaint gate
