You work with incredibly smart people on cutting-edge technology.
It's relatively easy to ship. Not too much process.
Whatever you ship will likely impact the lives of hundreds of millions of people.

Some of the managers aren't very good. I think we could do better at manager training.
Working with amazing people means that you may not stand out as much as you would at a less awesome company.
The culture can be uber aggressive. Some people take that to the point of being mean. Managers don't care if engineers are huge jerks, as long as they are good.
Do more to ensure that managers are good. I'd love to see the aggressive culture go away, or at least not be enshrined as a value.
