Excellent opportunity for the very ambitious
Senior Content Strategist (Former Employee) –  Austin, TXNovember 18, 2019
Facebook hires very very young and extremely bright young people from all over the world. They then provide you with what I felt was an MBA level training in how to work the right way. This included: dealing with conflict (fast feedback), meeting cadences, star charts to evaluate work and get buy-in from peers on priorities, gobs and gobs of information and documents to do your job. BUT, and it's a big but, it is all self-directed. In other words, you must be able to thrive in ambiguity and be motivated to seek out the info you need. It won't be handed to you.

Great place to learn and grow.
Kitchen Manager (Former Employee) –  Menlo Park, CANovember 13, 2019
I have many fond memories of Facebook. I have learned so much in a fast pace setting with mass and small production. I have grew through my management who have gave me all the tools to success. The ethics and community of face bookers are the change we need to see in our daily life.

Security Officer (Full-time) (Former Employee) –  Fremont, CANovember 13, 2019
Facebook is a cool place to work as far as people free food & snacks. I was a upscale Security Officer & the management treated employees poorly doesn't value diversity opinions or open minded people.

Work Hard but Satisfied
Software Engineer (Current Employee) –  Seattle, WANovember 10, 2019
The work is challenging and plentiful but it's also very satisfying and your teammates are excellent. Definitely having the right mindset for this company matters. Somebody who is self motivated and ready to be jump head first into something they don't know can succeed in this environment. In my opinion it feels like people aren't competing against each other, rather they are competing against themselves to see how far they can grow. Every single day you are working hard, but you will improve a lot too.

Everyday at work is a great time. Majority of the people working at Facebook are easy to talk to and get along with. All the food and benefits are a plus as well.

Free food is the only saving grace here.
Equipment Safety Engineer (Contract) (Current Employee) –  Redmond, WAOctober 30, 2019
Accuracy is not an objective and the mentors never know as much as the employee. I never figured out what the management culture was. Info from top to bottom rarely got through. The food was good, healthy and free.

Highly Recommend working for Facebook
Site Lead Construction Project Manager (Former Employee) –  Altoona, IAOctober 28, 2019
I have worked two other tech companies, Facebook is the best option for non-tech jobs. Facebook pays in the top 90% of career field, benefits are highly competitive.

FB Culture is NOT for everyone
Sr. Technical Recruiter (Current Employee) –  Menlo Park, CAOctober 14, 2019
I was never setup to succeed from day 1 and team was not very supportive. If you're experienced and worked in various environments, it may be difficult to work in this type of culture long term.

Not fun for the weak
Client Solutions Manager (Former Employee) –  Los Angeles, CAOctober 12, 2019
It's a tough grind and you're pitted against the best of the best of the best. You're reminded of this at every turn and told to stay in line. The pressure to perform is up to you.

Contractors
VERTISYSTEM PDO Strategy Specialist (Current Employee) –  Sunnyvale, CASeptember 26, 2019
Working as contractor means give up on work laws. The intensity of work is not linear with the pay rate. they use international students for their own benefits

Stressful but challenging
Production Engineer (Former Employee) –  Menlo Park, CASeptember 25, 2019
It's physically healthy but mentally unhealthy. Lots of delicious food, peers are good and easily go deal with, code review process is strict. Generally I will still recommend choose FaceBook as your first career company !

Good place
Data Center Facilities Manager (Current Employee) –  Altoona, IASeptember 17, 2019
You learn a lot and grow a lot, great job culture. With roughly a quarter of the world's population being a monthly active user, Facebook users possess a wealth of combined knowledge. For all the jaw-dropping comments from your wacky relatives, there are useful tidbits of information from reasonable people.
