A Day In The Life Of A Data Linguistic Analyst At Meta

A Data Linguistic Analyst at Meta, Scott, values the hybrid work style, noting that "a really big part of starting out a new job is the networking component," which spurred the desire to work from the office some days. The office environment offers perks such as "ergonomic desks" and provides a better work-life balance than working solely remotely, while still allowing for the convenience of working from home for some meetings.

What does the day in the life of a data linguistic analyst look like?

When I applied for the job, I was a remote worker. The company is Meta, a huge global company with campuses worldwide. I think networking is a really big part of starting a new job.

People often wonder about making more money. Generally, it comes from your experience, regardless of your specific role. It's experience-based pay. There's significant value in going into the office to network, discuss work, share ideas, and meet interesting people.

I tried hard to adopt a hybrid work style. While remote work is convenient and allows me to work from home, I personally find it easier to balance work and life when I have a separate space for work. I usually take meetings in the morning from home to prepare for the workday.

Then I come into the office. Meta is a large tech company with plenty of resources for amenities like snacks, drinks, and desks. I’m currently in a personal meeting room. They offer desks with ergonomic features and other perks that I didn’t initially have access to.

It's worth considering the pros and cons when working for larger, medium-sized, or smaller companies. They all offer different benefits. A typical day for me involves working from the office and interacting with the language model.
