Pros

Great stability of employment, with folks who have been here for more than 6 years. No annual performance reviews. Great Indian work culture. Rest and vest. Great work/life balance as no one expects anything from you.

Cons
  • Salesforce is a business-oriented company, so no high tech is present there.
  • Some orgs are stuck at Java 6.
  • Some engineers have no clue about modern technology.
  • A lot of people are hired by referrals, so they all know each other from their former companies.
  • Salary is way below FAANG, with no extra RSUs for those who can't sell themselves. You won't get promoted just because you are smart, as all promotions are a political thing.
  • Not everyone might understand Indian work culture.
