Pros
• Great people. Humble, collaborative, and passionate. Just working alongside my colleagues brings me joy • Autonomy. Fb gives employees the freedom to make impact with very few (if any) bureaucratic guardrails. They trust their employees to make impact, so if I feel passionate about something I do it -- instead of first having to ask permission like I've been used to. • Diversity & Inclusion. FB doesn't just talk about the importance of DEI, they put the resources in place to actually make it happen. They have clear goals for the company to achieve diversity across the board (including within Leadership) and the provide proactive updates for how we're tracking. • Perks. The legends are true, but after more than a year still finding out about new benefits. Wellness award is my favorite and can be used to reimburse expenses for whatever helps you recover -- whether it's Spa Days, Ski Trips, or even an Apple Watch for tracking fitness. • Career Growth. With the hyper growth opportunities for professional growth are abundant. • Too many others to include, but wanted to highlight some of the things beyond the normal 'glitz' you hear about (#Freefood #FacebookForty)
Cons
• Fast-paced, constant changes. While I personally love this about FB, I recognize there's a 'comfort' in knowing how your systems will operate day-to-day / week-to-week. With innovation there will be some misses, and if you don't have patience you will get frustrated. • With the fast pace, you need to be proactive to expect career growth.
