Pros

Good foo, good envirment The people are all really great and the company really trains you well. Maybe the most structured training program I've seen. Very professional but friendly environment.

Cons

too crowded, need to valet parking The location isn't ideal. It's kind of a not-so-nice part of town. Many people commute an hour each way, since they don't want to live in the area.

Pros

The amount of freedom each individual has is amazing. Tons of perks :D The culture is now more balanced, we move fast but also focus on maintaining stability. I had to move to a new country to join Facebook but never felt out of place. Never felt like a job to me.

Cons

We have a very active social life with colleagues, but is limited to weekends with other friends. From what I've seen its tougher to maintain work-life balance once you are married.

Pros

* Q&A on Fridays with Zuck, where anyone can ask anything (culture) * awesome people * food (breakfast, lunch, dinner & micro kitchens) * choose which team to join (aka what you will work on) * one-on-ones with your manager every week * moving around is encouraged (hack-a-month etc) * dentist & health centre onsite * gym onsite (even includes a bouldering rock) * performance review process

Cons

* I feel like an imposter, which doesn't have a positive effect on my work-life balance * the gym is quite small (& no sand volleyball court)
