Pros

Excellent opportunities to learn the latest innovation practices

Cons

Unfortunately I was harassed by the people who were supposed to be my primary partners, who had been in the team for years and were providing anonymous false feedback about me to my manager while pretending to be my allies. I protected them and didn't complain about them not meeting expectations, and my manager didn't look into the situation, he just believed them. When my manager changed, the new manager looked into it and realised that they were actively trying to discredit me, so he moved me to another team where my performance was great, but it was already too late because the poor rating I got because of the first manager's approach affected my options. To top it up, Meta did nothing about it and their response to the internal investigation was that no policies were breached. The bottom line is that Meta is an awful company to work for at the moment, people are only tools to deliver $ and nothing else matters. Plus, the playing field is a political jungle where anything goes as long as you can demonstrate $. Some of the things I've witnessed: stealing projects/impact, discrediting coworkers behind their back, eliminating employees because they ask uncomfortable questions especially if they could reflect bad on a leader etc.

Pros

You are paid exceptionally well. There are (still) nice perks, like free cooked food, music rooms, coffee (if you like that)

Cons

every six months you go through the hunger games of PSC. Where you hope your manager is capable enough, and likes you enough to fight your case. If you please the machine, you'll be rewarded, if not, you'll be placed on the yeet list. You'll be working with crap tools, no documentation and poor communication. if you're london based, you'll be having late meetings, and waiting for america to wake up so you can find out why x, y & z aren't working. (they don't write anything down) Also, you'll not be in the room for planning, so good luck getting the fun jobs.

Toxic work culture

Pros

Salary and benefits are good. Honestly, they kept up with inflation. But it's not a spectacular salary or anything. The stock tanked right after I joined.

Cons

Toxic work culture. They think they can overwork you just because they are paying you the "big bucks". Everything is always urgent and senior leadership makes you do really dumb work.
