Pros

Facebook has the most open culture of any company I've worked at. Smart people (I know people say that about other large companies, but the caliber of Facebook is MUCH higher). Great food ;) Best place to work bar none.

Cons

Freedom is given to the individual, which is great when the individuals have vision (which is orthogonal to talent), not so great when they are doing random things.

Pros

The company truly believes in self-motivation, empowerment, promote initiative and creativity. Red tape is reduced to a minimum, perks are great, quality of coworkers and management.

Cons

Your coworkers are all smart, competent and hard working, so if you like being able to shine easily, this is a challenging place to do that :-).
