Should I leave Google for Meta (E4 to E4)?

I’d honestly weigh it like this: better money now + maybe better growth later vs. better lifestyle now + slower career moves. what’s more important right now?

Meta can be intense, but if you wanna break into ML or high-scale infra stuff, they do offer good pathways for that. Google tends to move slower on internal moves

$400k first year is hard to ignore, but culture shock is real. if your current team’s chill and you’ve got a good manager, that’s worth something too
