      Loads of impact from day one, lots of autonomy

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Perks are so great (3 meals a day 5 days a week, microkitchens, ping-pong, no set hours, they do your laundry for you, etc). You're given a good deal of freedom in what you choose to work on. You have huge impact (you push code to a billion+ people weekly or even daily).

      Cons

      Expectations are pretty high (this isn't necessarily a bad thing). It's a software engineering gig so work is somewhat isolating, but no more so than any other similar job.

      Great place to work

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Very exciting place to work. High visibility and impact. The company is very open and transparent about it's workings. I feel like they treat me like an adult, with the expectations that I'll act like one.

      Cons

      I work in a remote office (Seattle), and find that the culture here is different than in the main office in Menlo Park. I think more could be done to migrate the culture to the remote office. I'm also concerned that if growth (# of employees) is something we seek to maximize, and something we measure success against, then we jeopardize the amazing culture that has been so well cultivated.

      Every day is an awesome, challenging, learning experience.

      Pros

      Everyone is really, really, smart, and the number of people doing awesome things every day is incredibly inspiring and humbling. There is an unmatched potential for learning here compared to anywhere else.

      Cons

      You have to be really self motivated to find and execute on awesome things and become one of the really really smart people doing awesome things. You might think that's the case everywhere, but I feel like here especially you have to stand up and do things if you want to stand out, but be prepared to keep doing so over and over and over if you want to stay relevant.
