Pros

This is the best job I've ever had. As a product manager, especially because of my business unit, I often describe my time at Salesforce as grad school for product management. I get to work with a brilliant scrum team, insightful and collaborative colleagues on the PM team, and a hardworking, world class marketing group. I've gained a ton of exposure within the company in a relatively short time and interacted with major brands. We've made market-changing product decisions and see the positive impact on our customers all the time.

Cons

As a big company constantly going through growth phases, it's challenging to align across so many engineering teams and business units, but Salesforce does an excellent job nevertheless, as shown by our customer enthusiasm and Dreamforce debuts.

Great if you're trying to climb the corporate ladder - not great if you prefer working closely with smaller teams.

Pros

Amazing benefits, great opportunities to advance if you're a strong sales person. Amazing company events if you can perform well enough to get to go to them. Awesome company to work for if you want to learn the corporate game at a big company.

Cons

Micro management, bloated and beaurocratic. Going from smaller startup to SFDC added a sea of new managers to navigate. Emphasis on hitting numbers rather than what's best for the customer.
