Great place to work!

Pros

The people at Facebook are smart, creative and very approachable. The company has an open and horizontal work culture which makes it easy to have discussions across teams. The perks are awesome and it's always exciting and rewarding to go to work every day. The internal tools are great and the way that the company uses Groups, internally, makes it easy to ask colleagues for solutions to issues you might be facing in your work. Also, I had the best experience with the Facebook recruiting team, they really care about you as a candidate and their communication is efficient, kind and transparent. Overall, a really amazing place to work!

Cons

Not really a major issue, there's always a lot of stuff happening so sometimes it can be hard to focus on your work. You need to develop good self-discipline to prevent distraction, especially if you come from a very corporate work environment.

Pros

- Problem personalities, egos and politics fairly minimal. Managers are pretty good at minimizing and not rewarding this behavior. - Fantastic benefits: three great free meals, fully loaded snacks, actual travel and training budget for all levels of employees. - Professional, patient, open colleagues (for the most part). - Make a case for what you need to do your job and you get it. No struggles, no hassles environment.

Cons

- Large company environment: lots of noise, chaos, lack of planning - People are still people and in any group environment they will show their stress profiles (self-centered, inconsiderate, domineering, lack boundaries, fighting over resources, pushing agendas for the sake of face/ego)

Pros

smart engineers who worked hard and played hard. There was also really good food most of the time, and a fun sense of family. I enjoyed the location in the bay area.

Cons

wrote code in a sloppy manner and were too insistent on shipping weekly
