Drink the Kool-Aid

Pros

Great office, lots of amenities. Perks like gym memberships and the ability to work from home.

Cons

Insane workloads and expectations by management. Overtime is essentially required in order to meet quotas. Management makes a lot of lip service about work/life balance but it doesn't exist. Middle-management are all yes men who drink the company Kool-Aid and never listen to employee feedback. Management is usually head down into reports rather than actually working with their employees.

Pros

Better than average salary, great downtown location, lots of intelligent coworkers. Good company to have on your resume.

Cons

While working at salesforce, I got the sense that management knows the right thing to say, but ultimately doesn't act in a way that's consistent with their message. For example, there's a huge emphasis on employee growth but it seems more attention is spent retaining "old guard" than giving other staff opportunities to grow. And despite appearing on "best employers" lists, the hours are pretty hard and the equity package (RSUs/options) is one of the worst in the Valley.
