I just talked to a recruiter and got a tour for several friends and I just so they could encourage me to consider interviewing.

Determined I didn't want to pursue working there in the end because I have ethics, but overall it was the best interview process, best interview questions, and possibly the most fun looking campus I have been to in the area.

Also they use super easy to clone HID cards for all their offices if you did want to pop in a side door and take a self guided tour. Security is not their strong suit. ;)

All employee badges use challenge-response cards since a couple years ago that shouldn’t be easily clonable. Also even if you had a cloned badge I think you’d struggle to get in, though I I’m not supposed to tell you about all the different security measures. :)
Haha I wouldn't consider cloning a card tho. Would you be able to put me in contact with the person who got you a tour?
That particular contact is no longer at Facebook however if you email a couple Facebook recruiters on linkedin and have a resume that checks some of their engineering experience boxes, I expect you will get your desired result.
