Pros

Smartest people, good benefits, beautiful office, great food Great place to learn from smart folks that have solid fundamentals in whatever trade you're trying to learn It's a fun place to work. People hang out and go to lunch, lots of smiles going around. Awesome classes to pick up technical skills Bike shop on campus Very organized, great strategy and leadership and execution Feels like with the caliber of smart folks that fb hordes it will always be dominant.

Cons

Almost everybody there is stressed. Work life balance is bad. Competition to get a good review leads to extremely stressful environment for most folks I know. Rewards highly intelligent people that sometimes aren't very nice. Feels pretty cliquey and often like a popularity contest

Pros

Amazing coworkers. Always willing to help when you are in a tight spot. Great camaraderie, no matter with whom you work across the functions. Total compensation, Benefits and perks are fantastic.

Cons

Immature middle management. First time managers can’t fathom disagreement - a very hypocritical feedback & internal employee survey process. You are looked down if you don’t have a previous Silicon Valley company. Lots of ex-Cisco ex-GE consultants end up as people managers & management by fear is the norm. Retribution and retaliation when an employee shared specific concern about a manager and complained to the several HR and Sr. executives about manager’s retaliatory behavior, that employee was put on improvement plan as they didn’t agree with the management and other FTEs and contractors have been scared of speaking up due to this retaliatory behavior. There is a lot of talk and less of actually waking the talk when it comes to supporting work/life,

Pros

Free food, 4 weeks vacation, amazing health coverage, 4 mos paid maternity leave.

Cons

Flooded with middle managers who are opportunistic and entitled. Lots of well paid people in these roles who work 10:30-3 and who’s contributions are unclear. Admins must pretty much ignore company values and opportunities that were sold to them- little to no chance for growth outside the role. You will stare into and rage at Outlook until your soul dies. Leadership’s idealism doesn’t well work in-practice.
