      Amazing culture built by great people

      Pros

      In my opinion, Facebook operates under a policy of extreme trust and respect for its employees. It gives us many privileges and opportunities, and it trusts us to not screw things up or abuse our privileges. In return, the employees all respect the company back. In addition, everyone is ridiculously smart and amazing and a pleasure to work with.

      Cons

      It's very easy to feel intimidated and see others doing better than you. Maybe it's just the initial phase of getting used to things though, so I think I will see how it goes.

      Seems like it's always the best time to be here

      Pros

      Everything in engineering is cutting edge. The projects we get to take on are huge, and there's lots of learning to be done. The decisions for engineering are made by me, not handed down by someone else. The culture is also made by me, not handed down by someone else. (As an individual, you own the experience/culture/projects at FB just as much as anyone else does) Currently, I have an awesome manager who is helping me to personally grow as well. Also, it seems like all of the cultural decisions that were made by the m-team here are extremely well thought out. They always seem to be the most natural / reasonable decisions

      Cons

      None yet. My work life balance on my own was never that consistent. I would work really hard some days, and not do much the other days. I still follow that pattern.

      A Happy Employee !!!

      Pros

      The culture here is very open. From day one we get access to every piece of code and the company trusts us to contribute our best without being afraid of breaking some code in the process. Exorbitant amount of power with respect to choice is given to each employee from choosing his his/her own team to the areas within the team they want to work on. This results in a deep sense of trust and ownership which drives each and every employee to contribute to their limits. And the perks never stop :)

      Cons

      I haven't seen one yet.
