Pros

-people are friendly and has good office atmosphere -pay is competitive and location on the embarcadero is stellar -agile development means that products can be shipped out quickly; development cycles are only 3 months so new things can be taken on -still an expanding company with a small R&D team means there are still many interesting products to work on and each developer can carry a lot of weight -get to work on both the back-end and front-end at the same time

Cons

-(pretty shallow) bad snacks, no complimentary lunch options -enterprise software work could be less interesting and results in customer support being a higher priority a lot of times -development often relies on the internal framework which is a shared code base that can be modified by anyone; this can cause problems well developing a new feature -Agile development might not be cup of tea for everyone (one must always account for each hour of each day) -People could seem a bit too cheerful about working at SFDC

Pros

I feel senior management listens to us and provides the tools we need to succeed. I'm constantly armed with the right information going into competitive situations. The product we represent is superior both in a demonstration environment and production environment. Our customers are excited about using our product to manage their business; new uses of our platform appear often on customer calls.

Cons

The monthly quota can burn people out. At times it feels like a burnout but then again, if we factor in the nature of sales in general, it's not bad. I can see the upside. Sales can be difficult especially in a recession however, with a product that people use, and talk about, I'm not too concerned.
