I wonder if you go back to Hong Kong to Protest
how much do they pay per year for lead tech or coder that is just starting out ?
one of your followers could get a job there and then fire the woman who fired you... because no self respecting man works in HR at a company like that
You’re no longer working for Facebook. Stop living in the past.
They gonna come and send snipers if you don't stop playing lmao
Nah don't worry. Mark Zuckerberg knows -everything about everyone- about it and is deciding to be a good BOI...
@Dario all we can do is pray
Hahahahahaahahahahaha
@@MKMK-bj2sk ahahahahah
I feel the same way. He is way out of his league. If it were me and I would just get a new job in Uber or something. He got his best bud Joma there.
"I moved my family halfway across town just to be here" lol
like he did it for free or someone forced him?
Ricky Stafford May save an hour of commute
Man, I had to double-check use to people saying across the country. lol
I moved my family thousands of miles across the street to work here.
sounds a little bit ridiculous but even 30 minutes commute adds up. Every move out is costly and takes a lot of time
"Do you really want to be the person that works on news feed...?" wow that put things into perspective.
"You can't win, Facebook, if you fire me I shall become more powerful than you could possibly imagine!"
-- The Tech Lead, 2019
🤘🤘😂😂
Because RUclips!
As a techlead Sith
I totally understand when a RUclipsr has beef with another RUclipsr, but since when do we ever get to see a RUclipsr have beef with a huge tech company LOL
Louis Rossmann
@@adilakif0061 good one lol
What he's doing is comedy. It really is. But for educated people that don't need a laughter in the background to know when to laugh.
@@adilakif0061 I was going to say that. :)
@@adilakif0061 Louis is a God at this point.
The quality of your videos have improved since you got fired 👍
thanks, I'm unemployed so I have time.
Rafael Arturo Mateo Núñez Thats not funny
He should get fired from RUclips too,maybe it'll improve his content even more
true story
@@grbr7548 He is unemployed, retired, and still making money in multiple ways. I think it's quite funny. If you are unemployed out there, don't make excuses to do absolutely nothing. Improve a skill, craft a talent, or even learn a new trade. Enhance your living experience.
I am a computer engineering student at University of Houston with 7 years of complex CNC Programming experience. I’ve already received job offers from Space X and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. I really appreciate your videos. I even appreciate your political views. Your videos have done so much to prepare me for my career and give me some perspective when making my decision where I may want to work someday. Thank you
I love your content man! It's good to hear raw truths. The stuff that everyone seems to gleam over. I have my own ambitions but one of your videos caught my attention. It was about keeping pace with technology. Since then, I've made a habit of submitting code once a day and not recreating the wheel. The only thing I spend sufficient time on is future-proofing and scalability.
Trolling at the highest level
*At the tech lead level
it was a masterpiece
@@MKMK-bj2sk epic man !!!!
ma man knows it all
@@johnwig285 No he was but he got laid off from both of them. He just uses his dry humor sense of humor and sarcasm to great effect when making such vides, often when he may be demonstrating/leading up to a point.
Why is the facebook "open office" a mididle school computer lab?
Lmao
That scene looks like the classrooms where new hires get training.
Because the company is full of people who still think they're in high school?
I have the same thoughts
I used to work there. It’s nothing like what is shown in the video. Judging by the video it’s probably somewhere outside of Facebook because he is not allowed to go back?
"Between you and me, I deleted my FB account 2 years ago." LoL
Lol tht line is gold
Except it's not really deleted.
@@thedarkthrone4699 They will never let anyone go, they are always there, in the shadows, collecting data, feeding of private conversations, always watching,...
1. testament to the success of this channel
2. as an employee in big companies, its all about perceived contribution and getting along with your superiors :)
Next Video: How I got sued by Facebook...
"How Facebook sued me for 5 billion dollar and won"
😂
"just trying to monetize my lawsuit "
@@opengrapefruit1534 "want to know how to defend yourself against big tech? join me at attorneys.com to find the best lawyers for your case"
My testimony will include a sponsorship mid-roll.
I am laughing hysterically at how much of a troll this video is. Just what he's saying about "believing in the company mission" makes me laugh alone.
or the "a half day in the life"
@Nav V Spoilers!
I laugh by myself all the time
I snorted my coffee through my nose when he said this
I though facebook company mission is to make Mr.Z a god.
Facebook's contribution to humanity:
Exponential proliferation of tribalism.
Proliferation? What does that mean?
Aka freedom aka resistance of NWO == Communism.
Ha! It's rare to find such a spot-on RUclips comment.
Röyal it means google that shit...
More like dopamine receptor overload.
“Asian male in tech. That’s a more underrepresented group”
This dude is so fucking funny but I feel like a lot of his jokes go over people’s heads
Haha.. Because everybody asians especially Indians. Google CEO, Microsoft CEO, IBM ceo, Adobe ceo, Master Card are all born in India amd educated in India!! But still they are the CEOs in the USA.
I agree.
TechLead sounds like the guy who would plug a sponsorship ad in the middle of his own funeral.
Lol
Death is not an excuse to stop monetizing 🤑
Someone said this in his last video.
TechLead would agree with you. :)
Ahaahaha 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
TL;DW Working at facebook is like using facebook.
you are a genius
Time waste ?
@@garrett8850 if you're the tech lead
Gay
Sounds really painful. Facebook UI really sucks, the only one even worse is Google's console.
let's be serious... Skillshare won't land anybody a job on FB or Google
duh
It'll get you a 50 bucks credit bill
@@LordLobov lol good enough to pay skillshare 50$ for the course
but it’s a good start to learn the fundamentals !
but after learing stuff you can be a freelancer and learning the fundamentals is very important.
My wife and I were dying when you got back to the car and apologized for it only being a, 'half day'. Oh man, we had to pause the video because we were laughing so hard. Keep on postin man! Love your content!
"Sorry guys, looks like this is just half a day in the life of a Facebook software engineer"
Was he really fired ?
I have learned more in this than all those non-trolling videos.
this is high quality content.
+TechLead In all seriousness, these kinds of videos are what RUclips was originally made for. True quality content is the heart and soul of RUclips.
I still don't know when the trolling stops and when the real stuff begins
I really love that this dude mentions "Ex-Facebook/Ex-Google" a million times to prove his point.
Thanks for being so candid. By the way, love your coffee cup.
Get fired by Facebook
- Makes actual really damn good content
He was fired for wearing his 'all code is garbage' shirt in the office. Trust me.
He got fired because his partnership with Clement. He was branding something in the competitor.
@@Summersault666 No it was his shirt.
It's for sale you know. In the t-shirt shelf.
@@TechLead ha ha
So he got fired for diversity of thought.
I can’t tell if his life is amazing or awful. I love this guy
amazingly awful
Facts 😂😂😂
How’s your life?
@@filiperss9388 Exactly what I was hoping for and to hear too there Filiperss...I mean yeah he makes a whole ton of sense which was I like and love him and his channel, but at the same time millionaires sincerely don't need to tell others about not posting their status updates behind their backs here through RUclips by telling them not to post them by complaining about them finding them useless...It's a sign of Disrespect plus not to mention on top of that that it's also very publicly shown on this current video such as the two sentenced status updates that either has to do with work or weekly plans if not for the weekend so it's outrageous and furiating to others that he's even doing this while he also doesn't neccessarily have to mention and brag about the part where he talked about other people's relationships with their families and or parents if not spouse or in laws...Truth be told that depending on the reason if that's really even the case, well there's also a lot of Abusive parents out there while the power of their words will also only reflect on who they were as a person back in High School and Elementary School and not just College and University along with Middle School such as a Jerk or some sort of Jackass...But it can also Determine and Depict about weather or not their Teenage or Young Adult Child in their 20's and early plus mid 30's may and might even commit suicide or take their very own life when not Believed in while telling the truth to their parents which is also pretty sick and disgusting, so let me just be very clear and break this down for everyone here on RUclips Filiperss...The only people in this world of any age group who should and shall ever be so angry, furious, outraged or even Frustrated if not just Upset are the people who are more than most likely considered to be what's commonly Frequently called what's known to be ("Victims") of abuse so the fact that he's actually using words like Immature on his videos is not only Stupid and Rediculous, but it's also a sign of ("Disrespect") and Privacy Invasion...He may always be one of my Favourite RUclipss, but at the same time as Sincerely Sorry about him getting fired from Facebook as I may be who has mild autism and a mild learning disability...Well please learn to mind your own business and start being ("RESPECTFUL") since actually being ("Respectful") and Understanding is what's most more Important here.!!! I happen to be a North American of Asian Canadian Heritage but over at the same time I've never seen people act so Rediculously and Silly...Other Families issues don't have anything to do with you even if you've had before yourself, it's not like they're biologically blood related to you and I've actually been meeting a lot of really nice and Thoughtful People this during 2022 and over the past years too.!!!
@@ArsonHQ I think you completely overthought my "two word sentence". I said - 8 months ago - that his life was "amazingly awful", since the work enviroment in facebook (meta) is toxic and fake. Imagine working on a job where you can be yourself, you need to have a fake persona to comply with all the pro-minority events, all performance "posts" and bullshit that comes with it. You can't focus on the job (even if its motivating and interesting) just because of HR / Management wants to pass the view of a "big company that works like a family".
I can see TechLead so much happier. I hope you are happy Patrick... life is full of struggles and conflict between people who want their way and their agendas against your... it can be a tough tough world
Lol I lost it at "sorry guys, guess this is just half a day at Facebook" 😂😂
This channel is so hilarious, after he criticized them, he encourages you join them through his sponsors! LOOOL
This man is a legend.
I have a conflict of interest with myself.
Because of this video I hate Facebook even more.
LOL no actually he got fired.....I am laughing at this....
😂😂
was genuinely confused when his badge didn't say "tech lead" on it
I loved your impression of teh HR c-word haha
"I moved my family half way across the city" lmao
He said "town", cities are big urban places and moving your family across a city such as NYC, Dallas, Seattle or San Francisco is actually not such a small thing.
@@floatingchimney Cities are bigger than towns? No way Jose! You got some big brains.
@@prezadent1 You're an idiot and obviously can't see the point made by my comment.
@@floatingchimney don't know anyone in SF who'd move to another part of SF for a job. However, leaving or moving to SF from another part of the bay makes sense.
@@floatingchimney You must be a blast at parties
'I believe in the company mission" yea this is just him BSing around xDD
When I was at Facebook I felt proud that I was working towards a better mission rather my previous companies. Love it or hate it, you and you're family are most likely using their products.
@@totaldj1779 until they drop you randomly. companies may have a mission that you wanna lick their ass for, but no employee or user truly has any value to them, not even the tech lead or you.
Jay Kyu that is true. There is no two way loyalty. As much as I believed in the mission back in the day, I knew they would pull the plug on me whenever it was in their interest.
@@totaldj1779 But what about all the egregious violations of privacy and the massive effort to influence the user's behavior? Is none of this immoral? How do you reconcile this?
Always, it's pleasure listening to your video clips. Absolutely right about political sector, especially in big corporations. Everyone claims their rights and victimize themselves, instead of getting together, and forget for the moment about the color, sex orientation, religion, disability. In the end, it's up to each of us how willing we are to integrate in a group, community, society. Sometimes, not others should change, but us.
Please do a video on roles at tech companies that you find are non-essential
Next video: Why I just accepted a job at Amazon.
Ex-Amazon tech leaded here, plz don't
Why I bought an iphone
No Ex Apple Techlead?😔
Albert Liu Why do people say that? I’m really curious.
Albert Liu currently learning AWS, hoping it’s worth it.
This makes me so happy to be a dev at a small yet fast growing startup. It just feels like the code you ship has a lot more purpose. The small teams cuts the bureaucracy and time consuming externalities as well.
I truly love your personality.. Keep the good work and I wish I knew ur channel before
We are reaching trolling levels that shouldn't be even possible oO
Are you planning to become an ex-Apple brand ambassador? lol 😂 😆
he already did from his previous vlog
i work at apple as a brand ambassador. (or i like to think so at least)
8/10 for the HR impression. Needs more bitterness.
" it's a lot of these small little bs features on a product that may not excite you" xD
He's spot on about an HR type.
Absolutely positively the best sponsor segue I've ever witnessed! From being fired to advertising how to get a job. You sir are a genius.
Definitely a different perspective. Thanks for sharing !
"Working at Facebook is a popularity contest."
I mean, it's Facebook. Are you really surprised?
But hey, at least you didn't work in the videogame industry. You would have been fired after brutal crunch periods powered by "passion" energy.
He actually did work in videogame industry after graduating from college, Patrick mentions it in earlier videos. :)
They could not do this in Australia.
We have body’s and rules
It must be a great feeling to be able to troll your ex-employer of wrongfully and/or unjustly fired you while making money of that video! Good job & good luck in future!
And making money doing it jajajjaja
Much of the social media industry is based on trashing others. Not passing judgement...just stating the obvious
"Asians male in Tech. I think that's also an underrepresented group" - haha making a case like a pro :D
@@robertdoubleday325 Alot of foreigners in SV. That's why their is so much censorship, they don't believe nor car for freedom of speech.
Rory Dorman that is because Asians generally are scared to speak up about anything. It’s good in that in doesn’t get them in trouble by rubbing anyone the wrong way. “A nail that sticks up gets hammered in”. except for tech lead that talks a lot on RUclips. Bad in that Asians don’t get credit or noticed for characteristics to get an upper management position
@@bigpoppa4094 , Asians are doing well leading the companies outside of USA. AMD and Nvidia CEOs are also really good.
@@ShaferHart what?...
@@alexandramn6734 that's a real sweeping statement to make innit?
What hardware setup would you recommend for working as a software engineer at home? Especially what screen do you have there in the background? Do you prefer a single curved device over having two separate?
Would be interesting to know since I started in a new job as a software engineer and my boss asked me what additional hardware would be useful for me
1:01 crack kills homie
0:37 "I left a good job at Google and moved my family half way across TOWN just to be here." Hahahaha.
😆😆😆sad I didn't look at it as a joke at first. Read your comment and almost spit out my drink.
I dont get it
The joke makes sense if you've seen his videos about travelling around the world .
I took one cyber security prep course and because of that, it made me kind of randomly subscribe to this guy. Genuinely glad I did because he is very successful, intelligent, and funny. I do not like Facebook, deactivated it years ago, and wish I never had it at all.
Thanks kid
@@TechLead LOL!
The Political atmosphere definitely looks like a huge turn off. Any company who's culture basically requires you to have a specific political tilt to fit in; or from what I can tell at FB, - even be able to be yourself at all without the fear of termination; is about a half step away from being a cult.
It is weird since Zuckerberg is autistic and does not Seem to Care about that stuff.
He must have put a woman in charge somewhere
Zuck is just the quintessence of all this, he’s not the real power
@@sorvex9 he's a passive CEO
All big silicon valley tech companies are like that. Speaking as a salesforce engineer.
@@sorvex9 Probably his wife, who receives her orders from Beijing.
Really appreciate it. Love the content!
so much respect for how brutally honest you are. Great video!
Spot on. My love for your channel is steadily growing.
TechLead your story is very similar to my experienced nevertheless to said , but you hit it right on the top of the head.
Watching all his videos and seeing his life unfold at RUclips, then Google, then Facebook, makes me understand that Facebook always breaks family, whether using it or as working there as a software engineer...
“It’s basically a shouting match.”
“It’s just a popularity contest.”
“Only the most-liked posts are considered the most credible arguments.”
So working for Facebook feels the exact same as using Facebook.
When he said “I believe in the mission” over that corny elevator music I knew something was coming.
Don't feel bad mr. Tech lead. Your channel is still doing awesome even without FB
The HR was so funny . lol . I liked the reason you gave behind your hard work.
"moved my family, half-way (small pause) across town"
Lol
I honestly thought he got his job back and made a genuine video, smh
Bold of you to assume
Kurt, you've just bought this little joke. But please, don't ever buy a shotgun.
Rofl, 1min in the video I was going to pause and make a raging comment like "bruh you're serious?"
same.
If anything happens to our techlead, zuck zuck is to blame. We must protect him at all cost.
lol I love the fact that HR being trash is a universal theme
this is the best video you ever made, especially the impression of HR lol.
I rarely ever subscribe to any channels, but this is the video that made me go, okay I need to subscribe to this guy. Love this video, thanks so much for your insights to how the Tech World operates. Facebook has dramatically driven up the prices for housing in all cities along the peninsula, so it's nice to know what really goes on there.
Man I changed the whole perspective of the Tech lead after watching this video. You are awesome infact. Direct and no bullshit like other people. great you document all shit in life.. nothing held back.
This dude has me LMFAO every time I watch his videos!!!
I like how you didn't mince any topic that's not devoid of any controversy (i.e. culture inside facebook, etc.) Great content!
Meanwhile at Facebook:
- WE ARE UNDER ATTACK!
- What!? Who dares...
- It's TechLead!
- Flee, fools!
hhh nice one
Thank you TechLead, really interesting information. I never knew about the culture at Facebook.
Can't help but respect this guy
I got a job offer at Facebook, and though I personally would never work for another company because I'm self-employed and love it, I did always wonder what it was like in there, thanks for sharing clips and talking about your experience there, subscribed!
He’s right about his assessment on Facebook- from the ex-fb team lead
Start your own product copany. I will love to apply. Good work keep going
The campus looks gorgeous!!!
The subtle trolling in this video is a work of art. We continue to be in awe of you Mr. TechLead.
My favorite RUclipsr. Lol. Great video!
😵😵no one recognised chirs
@@universal4334 absolutely 😂💔
@@universal4334 absolutely 😂💔
His story is just more "dramatic" than the others' 😂 but he can comfort himself as a millionaire 😆
I am shocked by the open space and the computer screen they gave you 😳
I wasn't expecting to see Facebook like that.
Interesting video, thanks for sharing your thoughts. Question though: Did you not receive any prior warnings? You simply got fired immediately same day without any previous warnings to do things differently? If so, that's almost hard to believe...just curious.
When I first saw this, I assumed that you got your old job back, but in exchange they made you shoot a stupid video.
Oh how wrong I was.
Facebook. Sounds amazing? Want to land your dream job there? SKILLSHARE!
Facebook. Decided you don’t want to go there after all? SKILLSHARE!
1:01 "its an open office work space" for sure lol
DUDE HAS HIS WHOLE CRACK OUT LMFAO
This is a great video TechLead. Respect the TechLead! "Im so successful" :-)
By the way, anyone know the name of the instrumental track at the beginning?
"Asian male in tech" Man you made me laugh so loud hahahaha you´re the best!
I would boycott Facebook in solidarity but I already left Facebook in 2012 when my parents started using it
Best part about getting fired is I don't have to use Facebook anymore.
@@TechLead
Savage
I deleted FB from my phone on July 13th of this year. So yeah, not looking back ever I think :) First week I was tempted to use FB on my browser but after that It was all gone...
I JUST LIKE THIS GUY, YOU ARE MY MENTOR
Update: Ex Google, Ex Facebook, Rising RUclips Star xDD
"The more senior engineers who have a lot of influence they have a lot of followers actually, so when they post anything everybody likes their post" lol
Now I know why he got fired, he was very true to the core how he felt about things
i just wish techlead had visited the gym at 7 am since every software engineer starts their day like that.
Hey tech lead, I have a question here: how to deal with a colleague who intentionally took credit from your idea/work? I have noticed this occurs quite frequently over the workplace what has a mixed group of 'the talker' who talks (a lot) and 'the coder' who had the idea and got things done
You come off as arrogant at times and I want to not like you as much, but then I realize that you’re just brutally honest. We need more people like you, who are just real about things.
8:30 The only one unbiased unbanned voice on youtube
Asian male in tech group :D Love your sense of humour. Keep going. Coffee for you.. lead.. tech... ☕️ with respect
