Meta

Our core values define who we are

At Meta, core values aren’t just words on a piece of paper. They’re what guide our actions, communication and decisions every day.

Move fast

We build and learn faster than anyone else. Acting with urgency, we don’t wait until next week to do something we could do today. We continuously work to speed up our highest priority initiatives by methodically removing barriers that get in the way. It’s about moving fast in one direction together — as a company and as individuals.

Build awesome things

We push ourselves to ship things that are not just good, but also awe-inspiring. We’ve already built technologies that are useful to billions of people. In our next chapter, we’ll focus more on inspiring them as well, in everything we do.

Be direct and respect your colleagues

We create a culture where we are straightforward and willing to have hard conversations with each other. At the same time, we are also respectful and when we share feedback, we recognize that many of the world’s leading experts work here.

Focus on long-term impact

We emphasize long-term thinking that encourages us to extend the timeline for the impact we have, rather than optimizing for near-term wins. We take on the challenges that will be the most impactful, even if the full results won’t be seen for years.

Live in the future

We build the future of work that we want, with an in-person focus designed to support a strong, valuable experience for our people who work from the office, and a thoughtful and intentional approach to where we invest in remote work. This also means being early adopters of the future products we build to help people feel present together wherever they are.

Meta, Metamates, me

We are stewards of our company and our mission. We have a sense of responsibility for our collective success and to each other as teammates. It’s about taking care of our company and each other.

AI Insights:
Meta pays you life-changing money to feel like you might be fired tomorrow while your coworkers quietly stab you in the back for PSC points. The Performance Summary Cycle has replaced human culture with a zero-sum hunger game where taking vacation is a firing offense and backstabbing is table stakes. Engineers with 00K TC are getting divorced and developing precancerous conditions. Join for 2 years, collect the bag, and run.
