      Lots of growth, but has lost its culture and start up feel

      Pros

      Flexibility in my current position. Lots of room for growth and training. Great product, very innovative and fast paced company.

      Cons

      No clear company direction. Strategy and long term vision are kept to the senior management and tech visionaries. The rest of the company just has to learn and get up to speed after technology/products are launched. Salesforce is a sales company, not enough emphasis or attention goes to Support/Services.

      Pros

      I have really grown my career and skills at salesforce.com. I have been able to move from individual contributor, to manager, to a full executive. I have learned how to work with customers in a way I never could have at my previous employer, Oracle. I have also been able to grow my hiring skills, and even my firing skills. I have watched the management team take the company to an amazing market position. Best of all, salesforce.com keeps changing. When i started it was just about sales force automation. Then customer service, call centers, and portals. Then they invented Platform As a Service for customers and ISVs to build apps on the salesfoce.com force.com platform. Now we are entering Social Networking with Chatter which has redefined the company as a leader in an important new area. All of this has positively impacted me, and made my career skills more valuable than ever before. I get calls for different positions all the time, and they are increasingly exciting. But, when I compare them again where salesforce.com can take me, well, then I would be a fool to leave.

      Cons

      There is a huge amount of change all the time. The is the same side of the coin as growth. My priorities change at least once a year, and sometimes more. That has to be expected as we are fastest growing enterprise software company of our size. Of course, I could be at Oracle, and there would be no changes, because Oracle doesn't change---its only acquires. That is not what I want. Also, moving up at salesforce.com means I have to constantly prove myself. Its not about what I did yesterday, which may have been an amazing accomplishment, its about what I am doing today. We have grown so much I think we have pick up some dead wood, and management needs to be stronger about getting rid of the poor performers. We have a ton of stars, and a we have a few black holes. I am sure that happens when you grown from 0-5000 employees in 10 years. But, wow, we have really seen the changes happen. I can only imagine the next 10 years it is going to be spectacular with the new technology.
