Pros

Unfortunately, most of the good parts have gone with the acquisition, nothing lasts forever, I guess. There's still free pop and snacks in the break room, for now.

Cons

I use to really love my sales job here at ExactTarget but I am afraid to say those days are long gone. This use to be the place the be in Indianapolis for corporate sales but it really isn’t what it use to be, perks have been cut, pay has been cut ever since SalesForce took the reigns. I was hopeful with the acquisition but it hasn't been what I had hoped at all. There's been several people who have been let go from sales and for the first time in nearly 4 years of working here I am nervous about potentially losing my job. It's really sad as a year ago I could have seen being here for a large part of my career but I guess thats tech, ever changing, and volatile. I would be cautious about taking a sales job with ExactTarget right now, they keep hiring but its because people keep leaving for better opportunities, lots of uncertainty going on, the good people are getting out and I will be leaving as soon as I find a new opportunity.

Pros

The people here are awesome. The culture, known as "Orange", is unique and exceptional. I am continuously challenged to stretch and grow in my role, which I appreciate. Benefits, pay, time off, and other perks are above market and keep morale high.

Cons

The fast paced, dynamic environment makes it challenging to un-plug.

Pros

A few of the highlites for me are: Employee Stock Purchase Plan Super-competitive comp plans and everyone gets equity Flexible workplace and cool office spaces Transparent leadership that always shoots us straight on challenges, opportunities, etc. I just like my co-workers and our customers!

Cons

We have grown quickly, but it doesn't seem like things are out of control. I have worked for start ups that grew too quickly and felt like the company was ahead of itself. ExactTarget seems to be in control every step of the way. We need to ensure this continues.
