"Impact" is not a clear expectation. its not really that actionable either.
The biggest problem with Meta is that there is no real pedigree for making new products. Everything successful has been bought in.
I'm still not sure why Meta decided to double the number of employees, there was no clear goal, and it appears that teams were making up bullshit metrics to prove that they needed more staff.
- disgruntledphd2 4y agoYeah, I thought 35k (when I left) was too much. 70k definitely feels insane. One of the great things about FB before that was that it was small and had ambitious goals, so you'd tend to work on important stuff, as would everyone else. But they kept making more money and hiring more people, and the culture got murdered (again) due to external senior management hiring. And the last four to five years have hollowed out the original core of competent execs. Their replacements are less good, which cascades downhill and causes more problems.
