I’m Michael. I was a principal engineer at Facebook from 2009 to 2017, where I was the top code contributor of all time and also conducted hundreds of interviews. I recently co-founded Formation.dev, an engineering fellowship that trains and refers engineers directly into big tech. Ask me Anything!

Most things that happen at that happen at the office are covered under confidentiality so I'll be more vague. When I started in Palo Alto, out of school, from Canada, it was pretty cool to see celebrities and important public figures come visit the offices and walk right by. Especially tech role models that most people might not know. A memorable moment was when a fleet of shuttles showed up during a surprise all hands meeting and took the whole company to see a movie and rented the entire 10 screen complex.
