Pros

Smart and driven colleagues Vision of management and Mark Zuckerberg to prioritize long term goals over short term ones Ability to work on a product that affects hundreds of millions of people Employees given large responsibilities relatively early in their careers Strong culture makes it fun to work here

Cons

Relatively understaffed which means you have more responsibility and ability to define your work but longer hours Facebook starting to grow and increase its level of bureaucracy although it is still limited

Pros

- The ratio of employees to customers is still large enough that everything you do has impact - Employees are trusted with working on what's important without the need for constant overview - Everyone is smart, but rarely feel the need to prove it. - The amenities allow us to focus on our work, and also make us feel valued. Plus not having to go grocery shopping in eight months has been nice. - The campus really does feel like a home. This is the first job I've had where I really am glad to head into work and actually get disappointed when I see how quickly the day goes by. - The managers are very technical capable, and know when to manage and when to step back.

Cons

- The size of the company makes communication a little harder, and it's more difficult to get to know people who you don't normally work with. - Conversely, there aren't enough employees to have people working on whatever pet project they want. The work they do has to have as much impact as possible (but the hackathons are a good chance to work on those pet projects for a bit) - Too much beer

Pros

It's hard to find another company right now that has such a large impact on the world. Everyone's work impacts the lives of millions of people. The opportunity is unreal.

Cons

A culture of moving fast can also burn out your brightest stars. It's a worthwhile tradeoff for preforming at a high level, but it can be costly to moral and the culture in general.
