Pros

Everyone is amazingly positive. Super smart people whose highest value is the right idea even if not their own. Culture of doing the right thing for the users. Supportive environment where everyone treats everyone as A-caliber talent.

Cons

The focus for projects is coming a little more from lots of meetings and bigger picture design than from engineering experience and insights. The engineers still guide and are the leaders for how things are built and what is possible, but the pivots and vision are increasingly coming more from above.

Pros

The culture is really what sells me on a Facebook -- moving fast is a prerequisit to succeeding there, and code wins arguments. Very little of the fiefdoms and internal bickering of other large tech companies occurs there because people are so concentrated on impact.

Cons

Code quality and testing could be better, and the organization is a bit chaotic at times. Not a good organization if you like to be hand-held.
