Pros

In very few companies you get to voice your opinion, thoughts & feedback so openly. It helps create an environment where you feel so deeply connected with your work that there is a strong emotional bond.

Cons

Being a remote office, one always need to take the extra mile to create impact. Though travel opportunities are there, we still haven't figured out the right model of equal opportunities for all regional remote offices.

Pros

Lots of positives: - Everyone moves fast. Things definitely break, but there aren't layers of approvals, meetings, etc.. Just go do it. All employees are VERY empowered to go off and build, fix, and suggest improvements. This environment is very motivating. - Downside of this, work can take over your life if you let it. You need to have your personal life in order, or no personal life, to defend other aspects of your life. Not for those that are not disciplined. - Smart people - You learn a lot (also due to the very open culture of sharing information), but also forces you to be concise, efficient, and direct. No games (mostly), 2 hour meetings, etc. Forces you to maximize your time and grow yourself and your role.

Cons

Tough work/life commitment Some cultural elements/tools don't need to necessarily change, but need to be adjusted for a larger company. Better to get these discussed in the open as Facebook evolves.

Pros

Free food, travel and laptop... People are nice but people managers have to be rootless.

Cons

People managers don't care if your suffering with being down, if this is effecting your performance Facebook isn't the place for you. They'll push you out and won't care to listen to you.
