Pros

You will have the time of your life at Salesforce.com. It is a phenomenal company with great employees who are smart, collaborative, and work hard. The exec leadership is top notch and the communicate the vision and strategy very clearly to the rest of the company.

Cons

The general sense to over promote employees at Salesforce. This works well to a certain extent in R&D but not for other functions.

Pros

smart, largely normal, nice people working very hard on challenging problems great customer focus from the top down not afraid of change -- you should be very comfortable with change if you work there wonderful office locations very focused now on trying to hire and retain the best people philanthropic culture -- the 1/1/1 model

Cons

Marc runs the show -- everything else is secondary after Marc, the largest customers make the rules -- SMBs lose has become much more political over time -- executives have their own agendas vs. doing what's right for the company sometimes the constant change can be frustrating and draining
