I have been working at Facebook full-time for more than a year

Pros – Work Flexibility: you have a work description, but you can basically do what you want
Work environment: you work with the smartest people of the industry, tackling the biggest problem of recents years (connecting 1 billion people together)
Work culture: perks, couches, free food etc.

Cons – Facebook becomes your work, you don't open it in evenings or weekends anymore

Advice to Senior Management – Hiring is the single most important thing for Facebook. True in the engineering department, but also true in the sales team. I feel this rule isn't applied well enough in sales: I keep asking myself how some people got hired here.

I have been working at Facebook full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – - Hackathons
- Flexibility in choosing how you approach a project, technical leadership opportunities
- Benefits - Free food, dry cleaning, etc
- Open management, Q&As with Zuck every friday are un-matched in the industry.

Cons – - Noisy open floor plan - Works for some, doesn't for others. The good news is, with some effort, you can get put in a corner if you want some quiet area to hack in. You could always just lock yourself in a meeting room.

I have been working at Facebook

Pros – The atmosphere is amazing. Everyone pulling together to help the company achieve goals we all believe in, while being incredibly open, down-to-earth and helpful about it. Amazed how everyone pitches in to help, there is very little politics and good things happen all the time. Plus the benefits are excellent - so much is taken care of so that you can focus on making an impact.

Cons – Lack of structure makes it hard to find your place, but once you're there, it's great. Getting fat from all the food.

I have been working at Facebook full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – I never knew a company could move so fast and get so much done while still kind of being out of control. The norm wasn't to follow a policy or to go by the book, but instead to continually innovate and ask why we do things the way we do. I was constantly challenged by the high caliber of my peers around me. I worry that I may never find such a great work environment again.

Cons – Work/life balance is great at Facebook, IF your entire life is Facebook. The lines begin to blur fairly early on between personal and work. This probably isn't a problem for the majority of early 20 somethings working at FB, but I found it challenging as a 30 something with kids.
