Over 4.5 years at Meta (Facebook), my total compensation doubled from $400,000 to $800,000. This video breaks down exactly how that happened, along with the outcome of every performance review.
There's a lot that I ended up cutting from this video to keep it a reasonable length. Join me for a live session where I'll share more details and take questions: www.jointaro.com/event/how-ra...

You worked at a company that rewarded your efforts. If a boss gives employees more work and the employee accepts, 99% just means more work and no pay. If you have the ability to get bonuses/pay increases/stock every quarter then you are in such a rare situation. People say "no" since we know there is no increase on any compensation.

Understanding what a performance review entails is super important. I've gotten screwed by a manager because I didn't track enough of my impact over the year and that shunted me down a level. Keep track of everything you do in a separate doc. It saved me from my managers's 'idea' of how I was doing and forced them to give me a higher rating because my manager had a Blindspot to all the work I do. Be proactive in your performance reviews, spend the mind numbing time to write the doc well. Most importantly, track your impact with proof.

One thing you mention at 8:45 is that people waste time doing leetcode. You may have already been strong in this area from your CS background and abilities. Many people struggle with algorithms/data structures bc they don't use this skill too often on the job and therefore need to brush up before interviewing. This is not to say *only* do leetcode but it's typically a weak point for many and used on the interviewer side to fail candidates. Also thank you for sharing such honest and detailed information!

I'm not sure I completely agree with the takeaway that equity is the secret sauce to getting a better comp. If the stocks were all as cash instead, it's virtually the same thing. I think the takeaway is that good perf reviews will lead you to a much higher comp than where you start because there's a compounding effect when you chain high performance review after high performance review.

Out of interest….do employers like Meta give any guidance on how to manage concentrated position risk?

Man I wish I would have done comp sci instead of aerospace. I’m at the highest level (Senior SME) and I only make $187k. Max salary is like $200k - $250k. For $800k I should pretty much start over lol.

SWE is small enough that one wizard can theoretically learn it all and do it all for a product end to end (compared to more specialized and focused classic engineering skill sets). Regular senior devs make same salaries as other engineering fields. Only one man army kind of guys make 800k in SWE. OP is basically Rambo.

bro i’m in high school thinking i want to do an aerospace engineering degree, after seeing this maybe software engineering or cs is better

The money aerospace engineers can earn is still a shit ton of money. Also keep in mind that the people making this much money are the 1 percent of all software engineers, it is incredibly difficult and competitve to get a job like this guy did in the video, he went to stanford and has a bs and ms in computet science so he is the top of the top in terms of technical talent. To get a position lioe him is unrealistic for thr average person, even if u did do CS i doubt you will havr ever maxed out to as much money as the guy in the video, most software engineers cap at around 100k to 300k max.

@@tylerjohnson5110even though it is highly unlikely that you will ever make as much monet as that guy in the video.. I still think you should pursue CS or software engineering, its more lucrative and in demand that aerospace engineering, im personally studying Software engineering right noe in university and im happy with my choice so far.
