Amazing company to work for - best learning experience
Pros
- Fantastic management team, really amazing that even with over 20K employees everyone knows the mission of the company and aligns - Well compensated compared to industry average and comes with a host of benefits including travel, free food, gym etc - People are so smart - always a learning opportunity to be had - Fantastic company culture - love how the company sticks to its core, e.g. weekly Q&As with Zuck, openness and transparency in the company strategy
Cons
- Difficult to maintain work-life balance, always on approach - Sometimes the lack of resources/processes was a frustration, would result in much more self-admin and sometimes I thought we were very highly paid adminstrators - With the need to grow desperation to hire quickly became a burden, meaning the most experienced team members spent a lot of time hiring rather than their core job - Upwards progression can be difficult as the nature of the company is quite flat and intentionally non-hierarchical. Means that progression into management and senior roles can be very difficult
