Meta compensates 10x types very well. 3x bonus multipliers, additional equity that can range from 100k-1m+, and level increases are a huge bump to comp (https://www.levels.fyi/)



Meta compensates all SWEs very well. To suppose arguendo that 10x types exist, I don't think they're really compensated linearly 10x more than everyone else. But yeah, certainly, if you are great at your job and want to make a bunch of money, Meta is a great employer for that.

3x bonus multiplies (Redefines Expectations) are extremely uncommon. Level increases certainly help but like, L7 only makes ~3x what L5 does -- not 10x. And there are few L7s and very few L8+.


I have many meta colleagues I've worked with in the past. All of them are well compensated but none of them were outstanding, or 10x.
