      Pros

      Facebook is a truly incredible company. Sure, they give you three meals a day, crazy benefits, and all those bells and whistles, but I would recommend this company to anyone 1000 times over even without all that stuff. People leadership is best in class, things here move REALLY quickly, and internally it feels more like a startup rather than a massive corporation. I feel more connected to our C-level team than I have at any other company, probably because they are so open and transparent about their decisions.

      Cons

      If you can't deal with ambiguity then you probably shouldn't apply. We move fast, and managers aren't super prescriptive about daily tasks and responsibility. Everyone takes ownership of their own time, which is great, but I imagine some people would struggle with that.

      Pros

      1) The only metric we're measured on is "impact". This feels completely fair to me. It also means you get to pick your own hours as long as you get some impactful things done and you're still in sync with all of the other people on your project. 2) It's easy for engineers to switch teams. That means you don't need to know what you enjoy working on before you join and you can't get stuck with a bad manager. 3) New York-specific: the company is in East Village, which means you can live in the most exciting part of the city AND have the luxury of walking to work. 4) I think Facebook's company history is interesting. 5) Facebook's language infrastructure is phenomenal. Its PHP and Javascript is type-checked, which makes it so much easier to read without typeof checks everywhere.

      Cons

      1) New York-specific: There's about 15 different engineering teams to choose from, which can be a deal breaker if your heart is already set on a particular team we don't have.

      Pros

      Health Benefits, Lots of free food

      Cons

      For a social company, face to face interaction with most management lacked depth..managers are always so busy and in a rush, and then it was on to liking and commenting on the next thing in their newsfeed, the next urgent request, the next team to manage... You see many employees managing "their internal brand" and posturing via their fb posts. It is exhausting. Senior executives are driving government politics not shared openly with employees.
