Pros

Great place to work for.

Cons

It's a big company, so although teams are very lightweight and agile, it can never have the same level of impact as a startup would. However, the leverage you get by the user/employee ratio more than makes up for this.

Pros

Never in my life will I be able to work for a company that has the global impact that Facebook has. Everyday I'm building things that is and will bring the world together. Facebook pushes me to keep expanding the boundaries of what can be done and makes me incredibly proud of the things I've accomplished.

Cons

Facebook is a way of life, and once you drink the kool-aid it's hard to remember there is an actual world out there. My advice is get a hobby (you're compensated enough to pretty much choose anything) and make sure you spend some time off of Facebook and work emails.
