Pros

It is a fast-paced company, innovation, the company is very open in terms of projects

Cons

Some business units do not have a good management; as everybody wants to work here, there can be a lot of backstabbing involved; "diversity" can be questionable, it is not always the case. HR sometimes does not listen to a lower-level employee, but an employee on a higher rank. You can earn a good salary, but spend most of your time at the company (lack of work-life balance).

Pros

- great learning opportunities - high degree of freedom - strong sense of ownership

Cons

- some managers aren't really manager material, but just did a lateral switch for the wrong reasons - despite having some truly exceptional people, there are a number of new hires that are sub-par - work life balance varies immensely across teams, from very relaxed (10-6, mon-fri), to very ridiculous (12h+, 6+days a week)...

Pros

- World class technology and infrastructure - Brilliant colleagues who care a lot about their work - Challenging problems and impactful - Decisions focus on the data and facts behind an idea vs who's suggesting it

Cons

- Not a con for me, but Facebook is an intense place, driven by smart and passionate people. If you are looking for a place to coast, this aint it. - Commute, if you're living in SF
