BIPOC Beware

Pros

- when the offices were open, the amenities - healthcare is one of the best I have seen - majority of the people I worked with were amazing and fun to be around

Cons

- FB knows they are on the line to create a diverse workforce and have been struggling for a while with it. With all the "effort" going into mass hiring of BIPOC, there is little to no consideration for how to retain. There is constant censorship on the intra-Workplace conversations, discrimination during PSC, and worst the silent exiting of employees that frame BIPOCs to be resigning. All the hush money they offer exiting employees help keep up the facade - With such rapid growth, inept individual contributors were forced into management positions and now they spend all their time trying to keep their friends at the top and everyone else in desperation to advance. This also means there are far too many bad managers - HR is a hot mess of incompetence whether it was related to PSC, career growth, everyday issues - The Kool-Aid FB forces through their infrastructure keeps many brilliant employees blinded from their true potential of getting competitive pay elsewhere.

Pros

The food; still some smart, experienced, talented people who work there; good compensation.

Cons

Impact you can have now is severely limited. Reviews are based on impact, career progression is unobtainable. Sexism is rampant.

Pros

Excessive perks, especially food. Emphasis on offsites, travel to the Mothership (for those in satellite offices) after-work gatherings, social events.

Cons

Not a place for introverts or those who value workspace privacy. If you choose to actually go home when you're done for the day - and not hang around or go out for a drink or otherwise spend more time with colleagues - you are met with incredulous stares. EVERYONE has drunk the Kool-aid; no one can fathom that the company isn't universally loved.
