      Pros

      Meta overall - great company until the stock price tanked.. and the layoffs started. Loved the people. My team was great. Everyone I worked with always professional, respectful, smart, open and honest. The diversity of the workforce and getting to work with folks from across the globe was amazing.

      Cons

      Too many layers of management thus the "management collapse". I was unfortunate to be laid off only to learn that my manager was demoted and is now in the role I was hired to do. My manager went from you are amazing to you are not qualified the week it was announced that management would be moved to IC role or laid off. Suddenly, I wasn't qualified to work at Meta. The worst part for me is that leadership turned an looked away. When I asked HR about my theory of being laid off so my manager could have a spot - they said "why would you ever think that? This is Meta, we would never do something like that!" Lipstick on a pig!

      Pros

      I worked on a core infrastructure team. The company has a mature technology stack and a broad spectrum of cool projects. Additionally, some of the best people in the industry work there. Go there if you are at the early stage of your career and want to learn and to grow.

      Cons

      * Zuckerberg's obsession with the Metaverse is pushing the company towards a cliff. * Senior leadership is simply weak and ineffective. They are selected by loyalty to Zuck, not merit. * If you are a senior IC, prepare to be a one-man team. * Lots of politics, no transparency. Much is happening behind closed doors. Be prepared to be thrown under the bus. * Even a minor thing can damage your PSC rating and promotion. Managers from the 'sister teams' specifically seek out nitpicking. They tell you there is no curve? They're lying.
