Pros

Facebook values your time by removing most obstacles that prevent you from being productive. You're surrounded by highly competent, hard working coworkers. Collaboration across disciplines (engineering, design, content strategy, user research, data science, growth marketing, product management) is very good. The semiyearly evaluation process is fair and focused on personal growth. The executives care deeply about the employees and the people who use our products.

Cons

The productivity expectation is very high. Engineering oncall rotations can sometimes be very difficult. Some teams can be too data-driven, focusing on only their top-level metrics, without investing in projects which improve quality of life.
