Pros: A great place to grow. The greatest and most mature engineering culture.

Cons: The environment could be too competitive.

Pros: For a new grad coming out of university, there is no better place than Facebook to jump-start my career. 1. Great food, three times a day. This is the norm in big tech, though, so nothing exceptional here. 2. Awesome idea of a bootcamp. All new people, regardless of their experience, start in an 8-week-ish bootcamp. This is ideal for ramping up on the company-wide infrastructure (since almost all the software in Facebook is homegrown). Also, you get to choose your team at job fairs. How cool! 3. Transparent culture from top to bottom. I have not faced a single experience in my time here so far (~1 year) where I felt the company was not taking care of me. 4. Perks, perks everywhere! Too many to list.

Cons: Impostor syndrome is a real thing. Find your strengths and find them quickly. There are brilliant people all around you, so there is not much use in trying to be excellent everywhere.

Pros: Good pay, challenging work, friendly and extremely talented peers.

Cons: Comp could be better. Work-life balance is hard at times.
