Great Company if you can avoid the "Impact Zombies"
Pros
Founder-led company in truly interesting spaces in the heart of the Internet/Tech economy. Meta (Facebook) has so many strengths in being able to impact billions of people across the world, and it builds amazing products that are changing the landscape of computing with Quest and future products.
Cons
Outside of Instagram, Whatsapp, and Reality Labs Research, there is still a lot of skill gaps in deep product conviction and craftsmanship. There are so many leaders, Engineers, Product Managers, and designers doing things to make a metric, a revenue/retention/growth number, or move up in their careers and personal success. This means that sometimes, solving deep product problems on the behalf of customers, with 100% focus on making their lives better and building something great is hard to get through leaders and build. This creates pockets of politics that feel disconnected from making our customers happy. It also makes it feel like we'll do anything to maintain growth and numbers against competitors taking share from us rather than asking if a fast follow copying of features is good for the heart and soul of what we're good at as a company and what will make the job our customers hire us to do in their lives fulfilled even better.
