Pros

* people are in general smart * great benefits (free food/laundry/charging etc) * great compenstion package * PSC is overall objective, in my experience

Cons

* PSC drives ppl crazy. Everyone optimizes for PSC or performance of current half * Internally, a big chaos. Tools are in general not realiable * Many (majority?) teams work on trivial things, just copy and paste php code from code base (hard to believe, but literally so) * oncall can be very bad, depending on the team * code quality is bad in general, ppl just pach new features. you become a lesser engineer after staying for a while. * other than title, people don't really grow. Projects are trivial in general. No fundamental difference in capability between E4/5/6. * company mission is really just to waste more of your time to max Ad $. * the longer you stay, the lesser a chance you can leave, as you know near 0 about non-FB technologies, and you learn near 0 about internal technologies other than as a tool user.
