      Pros

      Great Company to work in.

      Cons

      A lot of technologies used in the company are internal to it. So you might not find a use for them if you end up leaving the company.

      It's a mixed bag...

      Software engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Lots of resources, tools * Lots of scale is available to get experience with * Great benefits and compensation

      Cons

      1) The same darwinian management style that came up with the "Like" button is not necessarily a great way to tackle big problems like Trust & Safety. 2) The review cycle can be very frustrating. Quick and dirty experiments or proof-of-concepts can get more recognition than nitty gritty engineering, depending on who your manager is. 3) It is very difficult to execute on cross-org projects - Most people are focused on their own targets, so unless your dependencies align exactly with another team's, you have to fight for support tooth-and-nail. 4) No one owns anything, so you sometimes have to fix problems or troubleshoot other components to get your own work done.
