Pros

Decent perks at the office.

Cons

-Fellow sales people act like children -Very pompous attitude of most people that work there -backstabbing mentality -your success there is defined by your patch -lots of internal politics and sucking up involved -Very deceiving to customers, will say anything and do anything to get the deal done. Testament to that is the insane amount of customer satisfaction issues you have to deal with while there

Pros

Salesforce overall is an amazing organization filled with some truly talented people. The product is incredible and the applications are exciting. Their philosophy and culture are world-class. Excellent professional and personal development opportunities.

Cons

Interestingly, what most excited me about Salesforce is what I found most lacking. I found the environment very sexist, male-dominated, negative, and non-inclusive. There is virtually no trust and I feel completely accurate in stating there is no work-life balance. You are collateral damage in the way to achieving a monthly quota. I left a paranoid, shattered professional with emotional scars I would equate to abuse. I'm sure not all experiences are the same as mine. I was unfortunate to land where I did within the organization. I know there are many folks who flourish there.

Pros

Great Marketing collateral – huge travel budget – Road Worriers

Cons

Degration – Bulling – Favouritism – on a daily. No consideration for their peolpe – pay homage to people via money. No care or humanity shown. An appealing manifestation of how mediocrity wins out. All managment are arrogant and under skilled both form a sales coaching perspective and employee management perspective. Look into al there backgrounds in advance of joining. They all have had V/limited experience out side SFDC. Categorically - worst place I have ever worked. Made significant sums of money net monthly 30 / 40 K on occasions, and still left!!!!!
