Pros

There is little friction between developing product improvements and shipping them. Engineers are generally given lots of authority to figure out the right thing to do and just do it. When people come from other companies they are often shocked by this, but even as the company has grown there are still very few gatekeepers between an engineer and getting their code into production.

Cons

Lots of the internal systems can be flaky. Scale is more important than reliability or consistency in some cases, which makes building reliable apps frustrating.

Pros

- Fantastic culture: FB is moving fast so there are lots of opportunities to work on interesting projects. - Impact: you get to work on projects that affect millions of people every day! It's hugely rewarding! - Great facilties. Facebook is a fun place to work with a great work environment. This starts with having top-notch screens to nicely designed break out areas. - loads of benefits, e.g. health care, free food - loads of opportunities to grow within the company. Facebook is still small, so there is always a career path that will enable you to grow into a management role or into a highly impactful individual role! - lots of travel if you're up for it - Learn: Facebook has a great team that focusses on providing you with training around communication, presentation, time keeping, management skills. Whatever you are interested in!

Cons

- work load is high so good project/time management skills are a plus!

Pros

Top reason : the people at facebook. They are the most brilliant and smartest people I have ever met. They provide you with an awesome learning experience and a very cool work culture. Other reasons : Nice salary package, great food, minimal politics, and other nice perks (too many to explicitly state!)

Cons

I cant think of any except for one compared to smaller startups. The low hanging fruit on the infrastrucure side is pretty much all gone now, so to make improvements/impact takes a lot of time, hard work and requires you to go very deep into one particular aspect.
