Pros

The benefits at Facebook are excellent. My entire healthcare team was based on campus and I felt very supported in my personal life. The company tries to do social impact work and does really care about the vision

Cons

Lack of strong managers across the board. I have had 7 managers and only 2 have been excellent. The burnout is real and it’s happened to me multiple times over my tenure. Facebook is now too big to be nimble and productive across departments, there is a lot of wasted time because of lack of process. Compensation honestly hasn’t matched what offers I’ve received at startups

Thanks for taking a moment to share your feedback. It’s important to us to give people options in how they want to grow their career so that becoming a people manager isn’t the only way for people to grow their careers—and people who choose the management path truly want to be on that career track. We’re so sorry to hear that your experiences with your direct managers haven’t measured up to that intent. We encourage all managers to seek out feedback from their direct reports often, and we hope you take the time to share feedback with your manager directly, in our bi-annual employee surveys, or with your HRBP, depending on your specific circumstances, if you haven’t already.

Pros

- Benefits and Pay: As someone who joined early in my career, I definitely found the benefits and pay to be some of the pros of working at Facebook. - Amenities: When we were in the office, the company did a great job of providing all of the amenities (food, new offices etc) which made working at a big tech company worthwhile.

Cons

- Career Growth and Opportunities: I'd be cautious of joining Facebook out of college or early in my career because it is difficult to gain new experiences or make internal moves once you are at Facebook - this is pretty similar at most big tech companies, but it has become a major issue here. - Burnout: A huge number of employees are burnt out from the constant pressure over the past year - the pandemic and current Facebook culture has made working there much less enjoyable.
