Pros

Good benefits, flexible work hours, generally passionate and smart people

Cons

Encountered lots of nasty things. Toxic environment, racism, favoritism, etc. Overall not nearly as bad as Uber, but once you are a certain size and you've been there long enough you'll encounter these things. Talked to a bunch of people before I left and management issues (incompetency) were very widespread, as fb favors internal promotions over outside hires.

Pros

Ever since I joined straight out of college, I've experienced nothing short of greatness at Facebook. The employees are extremely bright. The career opportunities are right in front of me. The CEO truly cares about the world outside of his company. I'm indebted to Facebook for giving a wide-eyed college grad the opportunity to make an impact in the world around me.

Cons

Since I'm straight out of college and have only been at the company around a year, I don't feel any problems with the work/life balance. Maybe down the line when I have a wife and kids, but Facebook is pretty cognizant that maintaining W/L balance is a really big thing in the valley.

Pros

The PROs are the people you're working with and things you're capable of learning so quickly. Any pace is what works best for you.

Cons

They are really no cons. The jobs now are more tech or engineering. Allowing more jobs that bring in a variety of people will do you guys justice.
