Pros

* Talented engineers everywhere. You’ll learn a lot if you survive the pace. * Top-tier tools and infrastructure; technically, everything works beautifully. * Compensation is excellent — they pay well for your time, sanity, and weekends. * Remote flexibility (when allowed) helps offset how draining the culture can be.

Cons

* Meta confuses urgency with importance. Everything’s a fire drill, even the things that don’t matter. * The “move fast” mantra has turned into “move constantly.” There’s no real space for deep work or thoughtful engineering. * Performance culture rewards visibility over substance — those who talk loudest get ahead, not those who build the most stable systems. * Managers often act like political players instead of technical leaders. Feedback loops are shallow, and actual mentorship is rare. * Genuine work-life balance doesn’t exist; burnout is normalized, not solved.
