Working at Facebook Hyderabad

Pros

Decent facilities, good brand name, option to relocate to global offices

Cons

No exciting work happens out of Hyderabad office, too much favouritism in place, people suck up to folks in US offices, be prepared to take calls at 10-11 PM almost everyday, people mistake meetings for productivity, no planned investment for the future, this has become more of a back office

Pros

You can work with some smart people on challenging problems. You can learn from the existing infrastructure.

Cons

Not as much room for growth anymore. Bad work/life balance. Waining company culture being replaced by Microsoft suits. RSU grants are at the whim HR, so you really have to fight for a good offer otherwise you'll regret it.

Pros

Facebook offers competitive pay, fantastic benefits, a comfortable dress code, etc. but you all already know that. Those reasons alone make it an attractive place to work (though that luster does wear off). You have great IT services and productivity tools that make the day-to-day of getting work done easy.

Cons

- Management at the manager level is full of many inexperienced managers who are looking to try their hand at management. I don't think it's working that well. They don't back up their direct reports and are afraid to make any sort of decision. - Decision making by groups...while in theory is nice and probably worked a few thousand employees ago makes things slow down now. Empower your people and embrace accountability and responsibility. - Politics are king, if you can navigate them well, you'll do well on certain teams as it is rampant. Favorites are played and it's more about what you say you're doing then what you actually are doing. - Plan but don't execute - executing is for low level people, senior folks plan strategically with a holistic view and full context....yeah all that garbage talk is for real though. Seriously, depends on the team and role, but getting "stuff" done could be seen in a bad light.
