Move fast and do fun things

Pros

I came to Facebook from a small startup (acquired by FB), and was very skeptical about joining a big company. However, I've been pleasantly surprised. Facebook really does move fast and provides individuals with a lot of autonomy to make decisions. The culture of the company encourages people to take risks, and I've been humbled by how talented some of my coworkers are.

Cons

Things are growing pretty quickly at Facebook, and sometimes it might feel like there are too many projects going on simultaneously. If you're not someone who thrives in a somewhat uncertain and fast-paced environment, it might not be as much fun being at Facebook.

Pros

(From the point of view of a new engineer.) The culture is motivational. You have a lot of freedoms that come with being your own boss but none of the crap that comes with it. Your manager gets that crap out of the way for you. People genuinely try to do the right thing and make connecting with friends, family, and your interests a better experience. You get to play the explorer. We solve problems that haven't been solved before. Hackathons are a thing. And they're cool. Free food is pretty cool.

Cons

Haven't encountered any. I haven't been here long, though. I will probably have something useful to put here next year.

Pros

The engineers here are all at the top of the field. They could work anywhere. Everyone I've worked with has all the magic engineer powers: really smart, good at getting stuff done, and fun to be around. The company knows it, and so there's not much red tape on the engineering side. It's up to each person not to break the push or launch a feature too fast. It's refreshing.

Cons

Not a small company anymore.
