Pros

Strong culture of passion, learning, openness / transparency, direct feedback, and everything is designed around empowering engineers to ship things quickly with a lot of autonomy. Growing everywhere and lots of opportunities for driving projects at whatever level you are able. And the people are wonderful - many of them feel like old friends even though we've worked together only a short time.

Cons

I agree with comments that this is not the place for someone who wants to coast. There's a general feeling that people here believe they're doing some of the most important, best work in their career.

Pros

The leadership thinks in very innovative and novel ways. Teammates are very highly qualified. It is not just a place for the uber-geeks, people with all proficiencies and skill sets work coherently to achieve the Facebook mission.

Cons

Too many benefits. Sometimes seems like the unique evaluation system based on "impact" is too subjective.

Pros

- There's always something to learn (I was always afraid joining a big company will make me stick to one task) - Lot's of different domains of work that you can choose from - Freedom to decide how you want to make the company better and that's what defines your job - We build fast and improve fast (that also includes improving salary and lifestyle) - Lots and lots of perks that you can read every where about

Cons

- The product is used worldwide and you can break things worldwide which is stressful
