Pros

Better than average salary, great downtown location, lots of intelligent coworkers. Good company to have on your resume.

Cons

While working at salesforce, I got the sense that management knows the right thing to say, but ultimately doesn't act in a way that's consistent with their message. For example, there's a huge emphasis on employee growth but it seems more attention is spent retaining "old guard" than giving other staff opportunities to grow. And despite appearing on "best employers" lists, the hours are pretty hard and the equity package (RSUs/options) is one of the worst in the Valley.

Pros

Great technology to work with, great developers, historic place in software industry, great experience and training, interesting projects, good variety, challenging technology to learn about.

Cons

I came aboard and within 2 months I noticed numerous HR violations and lack of professional behavior. People engaging in sexual innuendo, obscene language in staff meetings, disrespectful behavior, unwillingness to communicate except when backstabbing through 3rd parties. I have never before seen such an environment, and I have been working for a long time.

Business Outlook

Pros

Proven recurring revenue model, solid and trusted technology, cult following among small and medium sized customers, aggressive sales team, still growing and hiring in recession, HQs in San Francisco. CEO invented the Cloud idea.

Cons

One of the most stressful, high strung and political modern corporate environments outside of wall street...and it all starts from the very top. The CEO suffers from a big blind spot when it comes to running the company: he rules by diktat, asks for zero feedback, micromanages ad nauseum, and is a firm believer in the Art of War as management philosophy: his directs compete aggressively for his attention and approval and never openly disagree with him. He still runs the shop as if the company was a start-up and he had the insight to make calls on day to day minutia. Salesforce is quickly becoming internally bureaucratic and clunky; innovation, creativity and risk taking are highly discouraged. Long hours, zero respect for family or personal time (emailing and working on weekends and late at night is a widely accepted practice).
