Pros

Managers have the best time of their lives. They keep engineers down through intense and demoralizing review cycles. No repercussions whatsoever. Helps to keep labor expenses low.

Cons

You will have to put up with incompetent management and underperform after demoralizing performance review cycles. Having Facebook on your resume is no longer a plus actually can work against you.

Pros

• Work Life balance • Shuttles that will take you just about anywhere in the bay area • Fast culture that allows mistakes as long as you continue to move forward • So many diverse opportunities • Ability to apply to transition roles if yours isn't working out • Amazing benefits for Full Time Employees including free food, stipends for gym memberships & free dry cleaning • Open line of communication available to any level employee

Cons

• Contractors are expected to act like full time employees in every facet of the job EXCEPT the benefits • Some managers could use management training to better handle sensitive information like peer reviews • People forget they work with each other, and forget to treat one another with respect on shuttles

Pros

Good perks, though moslty for full time employees, great food, office space and culture overall.

Cons

Huge gap between contractors and FTE's, even the badges are different so everybody instantly knows where they belong. No mixing with 'real' Facebookers. The company is becoming more corporate and work-life balance is non existant. They make you feel obligated to love FB and consider yourself lucky to be a part of the family. And at the same time they send you emails about contractors eating too many snacks... Instead of giving contractors priority when applyig internally, seems like it's even harder for them to get to the company which is crazy considering most contractors work harder and now more than FTE's. They would rather hire a complete outsider and train them from scratch.
