salesforce.com – “Can be a great place to work, if you don't mind the impact on your private life”
3 of 3 people found this helpfulPros
Good salary, great product, casual atmosphere. Great potential, both for the company worldwide and for individual careers. Lots of freedom, e.g. in terms of telecommuting or transfers to other locations.
Cons
Constant changes of priorities, sometimes extremely high demands on employees' time, too much top-down communication. Orders are sometimes forced through the chain of command from top to bottom, even against heavy resistance. The contant struggle to get the day-to-day work done often doesn't allow time for strategic improvements. SFDC is still run as a very US-centric company. No enough global thinking on all levels in HQ.
Advice to Senior Management
Have more respect for your employees private lives. It's not all work.
