Pros

nice location in San Francisco (accessible via all forms of public transportation)

Cons

The Support Organization is led by less-than-capable management, starting from the very top. Management styles here rely on scare tactics to try and keep you producing at 120%. Too many managers doing nothing but "managing"; too few people doing the "real" work. Too much hype, too little substance. Absolutely no work-life balance.

Pros

Compensation. They pay well. But the bullsh#t isn't worth the pay. I could deal with it for about a year. Was just killing time after that till my options vested and then got out. Terrible place to work.

Cons

Politics. Lots of it. Backstabbing. Lots of it. Lots of egos that think that they're gods gift to the world. That's what created the dot-com boom/bust and that's what will do in this company. It's just software people... get a grip. They like to hire contractors to "shadow" full-time people and threaten to replace you with the contractor if you didn't do exactly what they want.

Pros

Well known product that has a large client base

Cons

The sounds of salesforce "Suck it up" "I want to see you sweat" "We need you pulling 12 hour shifts" "I am sorry you arent feeling, well but you better get to the office right now" "Visit with your kids, I am sorry, but you need to request PTO" Borg like culture based on kissing rear constantly You will be chained to your desk You will not have time to even have lunch and most of the managers will say "I dont take lunch either"
