Pros

Smart colleagues with passion for the product and driven to perform at 110% to make sure the product is successful at launch. Bonuses were regularly paid and pretty good. Highly collaborative cross functional culture between product, design, and engineering. People weren't afraid of making the hard calls to move the teams forward.

Cons

The politics of the UX team have changed for the worst within the last year. Attrition is so high, people have left the team in droves. Management seemed to have wanted that so they can clean house. People are dispensable and not invested in, and it had become a culture where speaking your opinion isn't appreciated, especially in a public forum and especially if it differs from what the leadership thinks. Significant lack of trust in the abilities of most of the designers ( except for the chosen bros ) If you like taking orders and being told what to think this place is for you. If you believe in changing the world, you won't do it here. And don't even think about unconventional design thinking. That's reserved for the designers who are "smarter" than you.

ESB - Sr. AE

Pros

Free food and drinks People were very nice there - but many felt trapped and were clamoring to find better alternatives

Cons

Everything else. Want to truly not be inspired - work at Salesforce.com They will promise you the stars at the ESB role - but I left feeling betrayed by their pitch. I cam from a highly successful startup that was acquired and spent 7 months of my life at SFDC trying to convince myself I would like it eventually. Never happened. Actually if you enjoy big corporate culture where not much is done and you get an 'ok' paycheck - while waiting for a chance to climb the later and make a decent paycheck in a few years it's a good fit. However it is far from a fast moving company - I found most AE's there working side jobs in the conference rooms as the job really does not inspire much.
