Pros

Salesforce offers generous compensation and good benefits.

Work-life balance can be reasonable, depending on the team.

Cons

Over the years, the culture has shifted negatively.

There is lots of political maneuvering and horse-trading.

Dog-fooding tech is a good idea, but Salesforce has doubled down on poor past decisions related to internal tools, which mire engineers in red tape or saddle them with the wrong tools.
