Pros

You have the resources to do your job, you work with other highly-skilled people, you make a positive difference to the world.

Cons

Head office is in California, which can mean a lot of late nights for meetings. Free food makes you fat.

Pros

Facebook's products are used by more people than anything else. The company's mission -- to connect the world -- is good. There are many, many choices of projects for software engineers and you get to pick your team.

Cons

Facebook is a big company with rules. If you are a software engineer, you are compared to all other software engineers. If you do part of the job of a software engineer and part of the job of a something-else (PM, manager, analyst, etc), it will be hard to evaluate you. Also, it is common to have a lot of manager changes.
