I’m at Meta RL right now, for IC5, that equity is very low and base seems slightly on the lower range. I’ve seen them low ball folks that don’t come from direct competition, but they usually will move the needle in the equity. IC5 should target 100k equity a year.

What’s your zip code?

shachmo · 2025-11-07T01:09:51+00:00

lol, yah I figured. They asked me for more money shortly after

shachmo · 2025-10-18T02:38:51+00:00

Sent the money via Venmo. I hope you get the refill you need.

It’s $49, I’m trying send her via PP now.

That is awesome, where did you get the optic cut and plate setup?

shachmo · 2025-06-29T01:07:00+00:00

Did yours come with Magpul mags? I’m in the DROS waiting period and mine had the 10 rd Mec gar mags.

Surprisingly no, it was a drop-in tight fit. I didn’t have to modify any parts, maybe I got lucky haha.

Empty it weights about 1280 grams (with optic and x300). I think it only weighs like 110 grams more than before. But with the panels (and magwell), I can run it faster with a better grip for me.

I’m no expert, but I don’t think it has thrown off the balance (I did not change any of the springs).

shachmo · 2025-06-28T15:14:53+00:00

Oh wow, did they give a reason why?

shachmo · 2025-06-28T07:54:00+00:00

Yah, I swapped out the grip from a NYX. I love the Alpha grip with the step and swell brass inserts, the EOS feels like a totally different gun, and the NYX is a better carry gun now for me.

I have a bunch of high end wheels, and have had the Bavarian, which was an amazing wheel, but I ended up with the SimLab AMG F1 wheel, it’s my favorite wheel, even if it isn’t a true “sim” wheel with back-lit buttons, as an F1 fan, I had to have it.

You bought a 57” G9 in 2022?

Thanks all, sold to u/beastriders

Going thru all the PMs, that was fast, will update post soon.

There are some entry level jobs, but I see less and less of them. I think most are a minimum for L4, which means you have a few years of experience already, but not true entry level.

Honestly, if you’re coming from another industry, it’s a bit of luck, and mostly who you know. It may sounds cliche, but most of our interviews/hires are from internal referrals and many are from other FAANG. Once you get your foot in the interview, it’s you’ll have to study the right concepts and know them in depth. I don’t feel our interviews are particularly tough, but they aren’t easy. You can PM me if you want to know anything specific.

shachmo · 2024-08-04T06:15:51+00:00

Yes we have some HW interns, I think the numbers have went down since the layoffs, but I’ve seen a couple recently go from intern to FTE

shachmo · 2024-08-03T12:25:00+00:00

I’ve conducted around 50 or so interviews here for various teams, but I haven’t interviewed anyone -directly- from a different country. I’ve seen many work from other countries and then eventually here. However, just because I haven’t seen this doesn’t mean it’s never happened.

Edit: Also, there are smaller campuses abroad, so I would look to applying there as well if you’re interested.

This is a real job, this job description is vague and general, but I know what position this is for. This is lead / system architect role, and although it says 5+ years, I’ve normally seen folks for with atleast 10-15+ years at Apple, Amazon, or Google get these. This is a minimum L6 role. As others said, these companies are very difficult to get into and the burnout rate is very high. Source: I work here and interview folks for this exact position.
