Pros

Fantastic comp and benefits, commitment to employees in every way, great vision strategy at the very top, great volunteering program, cool offices.

Cons

Red tape, big company woes. Often felt like management wasn't interested the careers of their direct reports and were too focused on self promotion. Small sample size though.

Pros

Strong support from senior management. People here want you to succeed. Smart co-workers who put their heart into their work. They reward you well if you do a good job. Great location in SF for commuters. Right off BART and close enough to Caltrain.

Cons

Lots of growing pains around processes and policies. Some of this is inevitable with growth. Yet, some of this could be avoided too. Work/Life balance not great, but getting better. Company changes priorities fairly often. Maybe this is what's needed for the company to succeed, but it's sometimes disruptive. Heroes are often rewarded over teams who work well together.

Pros

Great products - wonderful market leadership Rapidly growing Innovative business model (subscription based) Health, ESPP benefits are great A lot of smart people Very fair in travel and expense needs

Cons

Far too many exes are arriving from Oracle and bring aboard their "people" and firing everyone not from Oracle to make room. The culture, that attracted a lot of top talent, is now being killed. Quarterly reorgs are the norm and territories are re-swizzled for no apparent reason every year. 401k match is really low.
