Chances are, you’re on Facebook. The social networking giant how has more than 800 million users worldwide.

Based in California, there are 30 global offices. North America’s second-largest office is now in Austin.

Sarah Smith, a Stanford Business School graduate, helps run the place.

“We’re on two floors, and we expect to continue to grow this year,” Smith said.

In less than two years, Facebook in Austin has grown from a half-dozen employees to more than 180 workers, and it is adding to that.
