Pros

People are very cool. They really embody the whole "ohana" concept. Everyone is helpful.

The workplace is really on a whole other level. The Salesforce tower is VERY cool. "Embarrassment of riches" on full display.

The 1-1-1 model is actually taken very seriously. Employees regularly do a lot of good things for the benefit of the community.

Cons

Some major technical debt. It's been acknowledged and work is being done to reduce it, which is more than most places can say, but not enough.

Leave policy for most levels involves accruing days off and is, quite frankly, terrible.

Advice to Management

A few sprints dedicated to dropping technical debt will do wonders.
