Pros

Innovative company with powerful products. Overall atmosphere is incredible and you will develop some great relationships.

Cons

They want fresh minds in order to mold them into the "Salesforce" way. It's more important to build your brand and network internally rather do your job. No communication is shared about the sales process and they will continuously throw curveballs at you.

Pros

High bar for performance means you will excel in your career quickly. Lots of learning to be had. They continue to define the cloud business model so soak it all up as fast as you can.

Cons

Executive teams have and continue to make questionable leadership appointments. Leadership is heavy on fire drills and fear. Culture could use a dose of respect for peers, directs and cross functional teams.

Pros

Just going to come off as a super-fan, and I do know I am still in the "Honeymoon phase", but hard not to when you're treated like a hero from day-one. The first week of training (affectionately known as "NEO") is like a conference/school atmosphere with "speakers" that range from not just HR getting you on-boarded, but experts in the various fields of ET. Everyone is gun-ho about the culture and it really rubs off. Just a spectacular feeling to be wanted, appreciated and trained with such care and concern. It is very obvious there is a specific "type" that is hired and it's great to fit in with lots of like-minded, caring and technically capable and earnest people. LOTS of work to do, but worth working hard at it!

Cons

The merge of Salesforce and ET has made accessing some systems extremely difficult at times with more the one help desk to turn to and a lot of misunderstand of responsibility. Seems like "growing pains" but likely just the timing and will get worked out over time.
