Pros

Standard perks of working for a Silicon Valley-based company (micro-kitchens with free drinks and snacks, free coffee from baristas, wellness reimbursement, volunteer time off, etc), top of the line pay, options to work from home (depending on role), and decent opportunities for career advancement.

Cons

For as much as SFDC prides itself on their corporate culture (it is admirable), it doesn't actually apply in reality, at least for support-based roles. This satellite office is almost never visited by upper management (directors and above) and they have absolutely zero clue about the day-to-day operations. The business analytics are TERRIBLE, so teams are regularly forced to neglect a healthy work/life balance to compensate for leadership that simply asks too much, doesn't organize, won't hire, and doesn't listen. Great product, and I definitely had high hopes when joining, but this place is a soul sucker and you're better off taking less and being happier elsewhere.

Pros

Great Resources, Competitive Pay and Benefits Love the Product and Values System of Giving Back Generous PTO and VTO Policy Charismatic Leader /CEO

Cons

Horrible, I MEAN HORRIBLE Middle Managers. Stay Away if want to keep your Sanity and Dignity. Depending on your manager, You can have NO LIFE! I am dead serious. I put in 12 hours a day, sacrificed my Life and Family time ... Gave Blood, Sweat and Tears ....all for nothing. No recognition and constantly "beaten up" or disrespected. Told that they want to focus on Employee retention but it is just "Crap/BS talk" so that Leaders can CYA. Pleaded with my group's leader for a transfer to another manager in his group but told to "Suck it up and Deal with it". Don't know WTF he is thinking with a response like that.

Pros

there are many but no use , so no comments

Cons

I wonder how the people in middle level management are non responsive and how they can take liberty and convert a product based company into a BPO .
