Pros: - Team culture is awesome. - Transparent culture among the leadership. - Food is delicious, and the campus is pleasant to work in.

Cons: - The company is going through some downturn. - There are questionable business strategies regarding social media. - Competition with TikTok is concerning.

Pros: Really smart people, great tools.

Cons: COVID stripped away everything fun about working for FB, and it was a pretty disorganized internship (as to be expected).

Pros: Facebook has a lot of awesome people working there to solve interesting problems at scale. They have over a billion active users a month and a lot of smart engineers working to keep their software great. The benefits and pay are obviously great, and since it's a well-known company, it's a good place to start if you're looking to get recognized at other tech companies and startups.

Cons: If you're looking to solve "new" problems and build new things, Facebook is probably not the ideal place for you. They occasionally work on new features, but a lot of work is put into improving or rehashing what they currently have. This is what I spent most of my time on while I was there. It was still pretty fun, though. Facebook sometimes claims to be a startup, but it's not in most aspects the average software engineer would be concerned with. While engineers do have access to a lot of information and code, the company is too big for one person to have a major impact on product or engineering decisions.
