Pros

decent brand you can learn a lot if you're motivated good for people starting out some flexibility in working on projects you want

Cons

political sometimes too many metrics which make no sense career growth may not be great after a few years, my advice - kill yourself for a few years, gain good exposure, then leave

Pros

training, training, training. some good people, great place when you are hitting your number

Cons

management does not know how to handle a down economy or ensure that their sales team is motivated. there is some luck involved - you do not have to take a promotion if you do not think the territory will produce- research the trends - ask they will support your success- asks for more accounts- do what you need to be successful- because once you stop hitting your number, you will be asked to leave.

Pros

Great brand Great benefits Strives to pay 20% above market salaries Amazingly smart, talented and hardworking workforce

Cons

Poor management, many of whom are legacy from the startup days at Salesforce and this was one of their first jobs (?!). Benevolent dictators are allowed among the mgmt ranks. There isn't a system for evaluating mgmt talent and their notion of "360 degree feedback" is a joke: it only flows downward so you never have the opportunity to evaluate management.
