Pros

You will be surrounded by very intelligent and very motivated co-workers. You will be given a tremendous amount of leverage to ship features and change the world. The company moves very quickly for its size.

Cons

Working style and rewards are highly individualized. It's not the place to go if you prefer working on a tightly knit team. Working from a remote office requires much travel to HQ.

Pros

Still a bit startup-i, plenty of opportunity for impact and growth, great culture, great percs

Cons

Thoughest feedbacks you'll ever get. The speed and level of productivity at which they work and expect you to work is scary. (Not sure if any of these are cons)

Pros

Facebook trusts its engineers. We get free food, access to technology as and when it would help our job, a good working environment, and the ability to regularly move from team to team to prevent burnout and ensure that we've spread our knowledge widely. Lots of flexibility in working hours helps, too.

Cons

You need to take a good grip on your work-life balance - if you want to be first in, you'll be arriving before 7am, while if you want to be last out, you won't leave before midnight, and there's no-one who'll necessarily stop you being both first in and last out.
