Pros

Great co-workers - Facebook employs extraordinary people, working with such amazing people makes all the difference. Open environment - Facebook encourages you to break the boundaries, you should are always welcome to come up with new ideas, crazy as they seam. Great benefits and perks - The campus in MPK is amazing, gym, food, laundry, coffee, doctor, everything for the employees. The 4 month parental leave wasn't bad either.

Cons

Facebook outside MPK is not as great. The remote locations don't have the same range of perks and won't be as great to work for.

Pros

- The culture is very open and honest, and the heavy use of groups internally keeps everyone accountable to others. Company-wide Q&As also keep the management team transparent. - The work you do is high impact, and products iterate quickly - Hackamonths actively encourage engineers to try a different team occasionally - Lots of opportunities to continue learning, like training for iOS and android development

Cons

- Work/life balance can be tough, depending on the team. This is up to personal preference though, and many teams (especially those in infrastructure) have more stable projects. - Coasting doesn't work here, you always have to be actively improving and not rest on laurels

Pros

* Favorite thing is the people I work with - super smart, humble, and motivated * Culture of innovation and challenging assumptions * Culture of shipping over politics

Cons

* You're expected to work hard. I'd also leave the company if this expectation went away.
