Pros

• Strong executive leadership pointing the company in the right direction • Best culture I've experienced so far -- the people I work with are driven yet compassionate -- we are expected to work hard and smart for 8 hours a day, then go home • Competitive compensation and benefits • Working on a product that's well known and loved by many people • Building a product that I use on a daily basis is exciting

Cons

• Frequent reorganizations and process changes, not surprising for a fast-growing company but could be annoying • On certain teams, there's a lot of tribal knowledge that makes it difficult for a newcomer to start contributing right away • People can be too nice to the point where difficult topics are avoided

Pros

Coworkers are smart, kind, and supportive. Good product. Interesting problems to solve.

Cons

Culture has lost its way a bit under Salesforce. Tight budget, hiring freezes, and tight ACV goals and deadlines have changed priorities across the company for the worse. Stock isn't doing well.
