They have their own in-house version of just about every dev tool. http://phabricator.org/

FYI phabricator originated at Facebook, but the guys who wrote it left and founded Phalicity, who supports it full time now. Facebook did the world a service by open sourcing phabricator.

Review board and Gerrit are both awful in comparison

I've been using Phabricator for a few months now, and I used Gerrit for over 2 years at my last job.

They each have their strengths, but both of them are infinitely preferable to not doing code review. Neither is awful.

This might be right in spirit, but Phabricator is maintained by Phacility (some ex-FB people) and used by at least 6 other companies outside of FB.

That's one way to keep your talent from being poached :)
