Pros

Great pay and bonus, lots of other perks as well, but there is much more to life than this. Puppyforce so you can bring your dog to work.

Cons

Turning into IBM, way too many directors and above who have NO clue what they are doing. Was a great place to work. Now random imports are on power trips. Not feeling the Ohana at all.

Pros

- Peers are smart and super talented - Salesforce is a great company to work for. MarcB is a CEO with a heart and vision. Him taking on global economic issues and putting the corporate stand behind movements like LGBT is remarkable and very rare in CEOs. He is the modern CEO - Products are best in the market. CRM, ExactTarget are definitely the best in the market so you are not selling something that people don't already love or want.

Cons

- FinSrv vertical is struggling. Big bang accounts are rare and easy lay up accounts are given to Oracle friends, boys click. - FinSrv Accounts pie is cut too many ways - Pay out is every 2+ years if that - Worst is the new Oracle culture. Mgmt is all about badging and silly stickers and certifications you need to get to be able to tell the customer story when they should be helping with relationships & focusing on the problems at hand - global AEs are just in title, they don't actually get paid on global revenue - so watch out for that when you review your comp. - Comp % is low from market but can be better if you are Oracle friends - Mgmt bullies into inflating pipeline and force commit deals every quarter
